The WWE Universe was unhappy with Daniel Bryan's early elimination at the Royal Rumble on Sunday night and became even more dissatisfied with Roman Reigns winning the 30-man match. Reigns and Bryan addressed the crowd reaction over the last 24 hours.
WWE cameras caught up with Reigns after he won the Rumble Match from the 19th draw.
"You know what, I went out there and did my thing," Reigns said. "One hell of a crowd, you know what I mean. Whether it's love or hate, if I can be out there that's all that matters for me. If I can go out there and they're gonna make some noise and they're gonna do what they want that's cool. They paid their money they can do what they want. They can cheer, they can boo. As long as I can be a part of it and do my thing I'm smitten, man."
Reigns also discussed getting "lost in the moment" heading into the Rumble.
Reigns is set to go on to face Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31 on March 29 at Levi's Stadium in California.
The WWE Universe was upset at the Rumble for the second year in a row as crowd favorite Daniel Bryan entered at No. 10 and was the 11th guy tossed out.
Bryan took to Twitter to thank the fans for their support after "Daniel Bryan" chants flooded the arena throughout the rest of the match following his elimination.
Thanks to all of you for your support, not just last night but for years. You guys are the best, and I am truly the luckiest man alive.
— Daniel Bryan (@WWEDanielBryan) January 26, 2015
While the crowd may not like it, Reigns is going to WrestleMania 31 to compete for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
