Seth Rollins has been in the professional wrestling business for a long time and he’s seen the industry change in some big ways. The Visionary first debuted on the WWE main roster back in 2012, and he recently explained just how much the business has changed since then while speaking with Brandon Tierney & Sal Licata of WFAN Radio.
“The business has changed so much, it’s evolved so much. And it’s so much more, you know, user-friendly I suppose, for us as performers. The schedule is way pared down even from when I started back in 2012. I went from wrestling 200-plus matches a year to now maybe doing like 50 at most.”
When Seth Rollins was asked if he still makes the same amount of money he said, “The money is a little better [laughs]. The money is a little better,” he responded. “The business is in a much healthier place than it was, you know, 12 years ago. So — it’s fantastic. And, yeah, you’re right, dude. Those guys [from past eras], it wrecked families. The business wrecked families. Because what are you going to do? You’re on the road for a month at a time. There [was] no oversight, there’s no help to get you healthy, you’re just constantly running and running, and it wears you down.”
Seth Rollins will be in action tonight when he faces off against CM Punk in a steel cage match on Monday Night Raw. Stay tuned for updates.
