Seth Rollins has been one of the top stars in WWE for years now and he recently added more gold to his resume when he won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins has also taken on a high profile project outside of WWE as he landed a role in the upcoming film Captain America: Brave New World.
The Visionary recently spoke to Daily Mail about the role and he noted that he’s been sworn to secrecy. Rollins also talked a little bit about what the future could hold for him as far as Hollywood is concerned.
“As I sit here right now in my wrestling school seeing people fall down behind me, I feel like I’m always going to be part of the industry in some shape of form. You look at The Rock as the example here, and he’s a different beast, right? What you were seeing from John at the time, he was at the peak of his popularity in WWE at the time and it was seeing The Rock come back every year. So, The Rock wasn’t just gone for a hiccup, he was gone for a year and then coming back and taking away an opportunity from someone else who had been there and grinding and all that. What John didn’t see was the bigger picture and how many more eyes The Rock was going to bring to WWE, to WrestleMania and to the talent as a whole. John missed that part, and he will tell you now that he was a little nearsighted in that regard. And you saw when John Cena came back to WrestleMania this year, it wasn’t to be on the marquee, it wasn’t to be anything other than to be part of the show and contribute in any way that he could.”
Seth Rollins went on to say that he doesn’t know where the future lies for him, but he knows that wrestling will be a part of it and he feels as though he’s in the prime of his career.
“As for me, I don’t know where my future lies. I feel, like I said, at this moment wrestling is my future for as long as I can do it at a high level. But there’s going to come a day when falling down is going to turn my bones to dust and I will have to start looking elsewhere and seeing what other options there are. I don’t think that’s coming any time soon and I’m just in the prime of my career right now and there’s a lot of years ahead of me.”
