Seth Rollins has been one of WWE’s top stars for years now, and throughout the course of his run with the company he’s switched back and forth from heel to face a few times.
The former Universal Champion recently appeared on Broken Skull Sessions with Steve Austin and explained that in the summer of 2017 he had a meeting where Vince McMahon questioned his “fire” and Rollins didn’t back down.
“I’m like, ‘Look, man, you just give me the ball and I’ll take it to the house but you’ve gotta give me the opportunity. You put me in a bulls*** situation where I’m kinda filling in in these spots and I’m not getting the focus that I deserve. Give me the opportunity and you’ll see the guy that you wanna see. It’s not me, trust me, I put forth every night. I make every damn town, I bust my a** for you, don’t give me that s***.’ And he respects that, man, he respects when you do that, when you stand up for yourself.”
Rollins added that he has a good relationship with Vince McMahon, but during this particular meeting things got heated.
“He [said], ‘What happened to Seth Rollins? What happened to Seth freakin’ Rollins? Where’s that guy? I need that fire, I need that…’ I know what he’s trying to do, right? I know what he’s trying to do. I’m not gonna sit there and, I have all the respect in the world for my boss, for Vince as a person, we have a good relationship, but you’re not gonna talk to me like that without me firing back. And so I fired back at him and we got into a heated discussion, an argument.”
Seth Rollins is currently involved in a feud with Edge which has seen both men pick up victories over one another. Rollins recently challenged Edge to another match, and Edge confirmed that he will be appearing on SmackDown this week. Stay tuned for updates.
