WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins was recently a guest on the PodNasty Wrestling Podcast where he talked about John Morrison’s recent comments and more. Morrison made recent comments about Rollins to TodaysKnockout saying:
“I’d kill him. He works hard, he’s in alright shape, but CrossFit isn’t necessarily the best way to workout. I think what they’re doing is just throwing a bunch of crap out there and people are following it blindly. I think that’s incorrect… I think I would destroy Seth Rollins in pretty much everything: Wrestling, fighting, CrossFit, and definitely any kind of functional training. He’s a good guy though. I’d love to work with him. I think we both would blow the roof of any building we’d wrestle in.”
To which Seth Responded by saying:
“If I’m not mistaken, I believe John Morrison is a zero-time WWE World Heavyweight champion. Mind you, zero. As in never once did he win the big one. And I’m, what, not even three years into my WWE career and I’ve already won Money in the Bank, won the WWE title at WrestleMania, first-ever NXT champion so there’s a lot of things that I’ve already destroyed John Morrison at and if John Morrison thinks he can take me in any of those endeavors, I would love for John Morrison to step up and say something like that to my face.”
Rollins also talked about his match with Brock Lesnar and more. You can read a few quotes below and listen to the full interview above.
His match against Brock Lesnar at Battleground:
“I feel like I’ve had a lot of ‘biggest matches of my career’ up until this point. I would say this one is certainly special. I mean, there’s not a lot of guys who get the opportunity to go one-on-one with Brock Lesnar at this point in his career, so to be one of those guys to main event a pay-per-view with Brock Lesnar over a very prestigious title it all adds up to being certainly one of if not—I’ll leave that up to you and the other media pundits to decide what is the biggest match of my career—but it certainly ranks up there with the very, very biggest of my career.
The WWE Championship vs John Cena’s United States Championship:
“(The WWE World Heavyweight Championship) is (the most dominant title in the company) no matter what, no matter who is wearing what other title, this is the big boy, this is the one that everybody wants and if John (Cena) tells you any different he’s a liar,”
“But the bottom line, though, is that I’m always competing with John Cena, John’s a guy who has set the bar extremely high for the past 10, 12-15 years, he’s a guy who—not only in the ring, but outside the ring—is an example of what a WWE Superstar should be and he has put in the work over that period of time to prove that and that’s definitely something I strive to be as well. I strive to have that work ethic and instill that in people around me the way John has over the past decade and a half so I’m always competing with John Cena in my mind, but my title is the title and there’s definitely no doubt about that.”
