WTF Happened to Seth?!

[ChristmasFnatic]

He was so cool right after he betrayed the Shield. His feud with Stingk... His cash in on Brock/Roman... just awesome.

I remember us here were great fans of his.

Then now, the different gay suits, and worse- cross dressing. WTF happened?! Is WWE the one telling him to be like this or is he given creative reign and wants this as his character?

From one of my favorites to one of the cringiest wrestlers in WWE.

[WetCoaster]

He has said the character is his invention.

He is over and that's all that matters in wrestling.

I suppose. But not the type of character for me. lol

[yieldtonothing]

agree 100% op. i don't get it. seems like once he got married to becky and she started pegging him in his ass, his character really went downhill.

authority seth with j and j security was his peak as a character imo. chit was GOLD.

i think his ring work probably peaked a little earlier toward the end of the shield run.

maybe that's what she means by "the man". seth's always been a little queer looking. never liked him, ever.

This.

That was PEAK Rollins.

Cutting a 20 minute promo to start every RAW, with that sinister laugh of his....Lol I loved it.

J&J running interference in the main event so he could squeak out a heel win.

He had the company on his back at that point.

This new character...I don't get it, is he gay? Is he trans? I don't like it.

[Cleveland33]

never liked him.

actually I have never liked any member of the shield and downright dislike them, but not in a heel way, a not watching this anymore kinda way

[NMS3]

I like his current character; he’s a psychopath lol. I don’t care at all for the “perfect hero” characters that so many people idolize in WWE. That’s why I enjoy Roman, The Bloodline, and Seth’s visionary attitude. They’re the dudes being themselves, not trying to be anything in particular. And it works.

[squat_blaster]

This new character...I don't get it, is he gay? Is he trans? I don't like it.

I think he was originally supposed to be a cult leader hence the "visionary" and "revolutionary" that somehow morphed into a dancing trans homosexual who paints his fingernails. They should have given him another faction of "followers" to lead.

[Phil9]

His theme song is badass. He could probably tone it down on the feminine costuming but his ability to have a new wardrobe every week helps him stand out from the generic shirt/trunks or t-shirt/jeans look many people do.

Seth Rollins Is Willing to Face Anyone for His Title, Says Roman Reigns Picks His Opponents





– New WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins appeared on WWE’s The Bump today and discussed becoming the new champion. Below are some highlights (via Fightful):

Seth Rollins on finally being a world champion again: “It has been a long road, it really has. Nearly four years since I’ve held a world heavyweight championship, and I said it on Raw a little bit, lots of ups, lots of downs. The audience, they love me, they hate me, they like me, they don’t like me. I’ve loved every second of it. It’s been a transformative four years. I’m a completely different person than I was the last time I held a world heavyweight championship.

So this time, it really does feel right. I’m excited to bring a world title back to Raw, a show that has sorely missed a world champion in quite some time, and I plan on defending that title, being present, being the man on Monday nights like I have been, but this time with a title on my shoulder.”

On wrestling AJ Styles for the inaugural title: “It’s special. Any time you’re able to do something for the first time, it’s special, and it feels special. This one was the biggest of the three, and I’ll tell you why. It’s because this was a culmination. This title doesn’t exist if our industry and our company isn’t so healthy with incredible talent across the board. There was a need for a title on Monday nights. There was a need for a new title because everybody is so good. You look across the board, myself, AJ Styles, all the SmackDown guys, really. Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Gunther. You look at Raw, you got Cody Rhodes, you got Kevin, you got Sami.

There’s just tons of guys, tons of competition at the top, and we needed a prize to fight for since our Universal Champion wants to keep his part-time schedule. So we gotta have a title. I was more than thrilled to have it. I’m more than thrilled to be the guy to usher in this new era, an era of change.”

On who he wants to face for the title: “I said it in the beginning. I want the competition. I want anybody from any brand. I don’t care if it’s SmackDown, Raw, NXT, I don’t care if it’s from anywhere across the globe. I want people to come through that curtain, I want them to challenge me, whether it’s a shot at the title, whether it’s the title itself, whether it’s a tag match, six-man, cage match, doesn’t matter to me.

I want the fight. I want the excitement. I want to elevate myself and this title along with me.”

On how Roman Reigns picks his opponents: “Just open it up. Roman Reigns hand-picks his opponents. You can see it. He’s been doing it for years. It’s a smart move. It’s a smart move if you’re only interested in yourself. But I’ve been interested in myself for a long time. Myself is great, but also myself is fine. I’m going to be fine, so let’s open it up. I want everybody coming. I want the wolves snipping at my heels. I want to run, I want to climb the mountain, let’s go. I want everybody chasing me to the top. I want to raise the entire scene. I want all the ships to come up with me. I’m ready for that challenge. I want it now more than ever. I’m more ready than I’ve ever been. I’m just hitting my prime, I’m just hitting my hot steak. Let’s ride it til I can’t do it no more.”

Seth Rollins defeated AJ Styles last Saturday at WWE Night of Champions in the finals of a tournament to become the newly crowned champion.

[SmithMachineGuy]

He got married to "The Man".

I like Rollins. He brings it in the ring and he's charismatic enough to pull off all the characters he has tried.

[ChristmasFnatic]

Mixed views here it seems. This is what makes wrestling cool. Some of us here like the current ****gy Rollins(I guess the ****gs), some don't, just like some like Roman, some don't.

Brock or bust

[LinuxJon]

I don't know what's worse. His current character or current physique. It's like he stopped lifting the moment he got married.

Having to always be around a woman has drained many men.

That's the difference between Brock and Seth.

Brock has been married to Sable for many years and he's still jacked AF.

Becky doesn't allow Seth to hit the gym. She makes him stay home and change diapers. She's the man, he's the pu s s y

[jimbob007]

5-6 years of total crap really. Pretty much the Olivier of AEW, but without the push.

[EidFnatic]

This, I was watching the E during this time and Seth was a lord in the ring. Not sure he ever got back to his best (ring wise) after his knee injury.

[kneeonbelly]

is seth supposed to be a homosexual in character? It's like he took all shawn michaels flamboyant stuff and added actual womens clothes to it to go even farther over the top

[Superplex]

His cash in on Brock/Roman... just awesome.

I remember us here were great fans of his.

Relax Christmas

In fact, take a look at this Roman Reigns Ugly Christmas Sweater.

I think he was originally supposed to be a cult leader hence the "visionary" and "revolutionary" that somehow morphed into a dancing trans homosexual who paints his fingernails. They should have given him another faction of "followers" to lead.

When Far Cry 5 came out I'm pretty sure they went with the antagonist from that game as inspiration for Rollins new character approach with the Monday Night Messiah thing. Somehow that morphed into the Elton John wrestler gimmick now.

agreed here. he was crossfit jesus and had everything clicking. that knee injury was devastating and he never quite looked the same after that.

he tore his ACL, MCL, and meniscus. This was in '15 so he was about 29/30 years old. tough time of life to have to completely rebuild yourself.

CM Punk had that follower thing going and it didnt really click..maybe seth could have made it work if he didnt get turned into a twink
