Seth Rollins Reveals How Many Of His WWE Promos Are Scripted

Seth Rollins has been one of WWE’s top stars for years now, and everyone knows that in order to be a top star you have to able to hold your own on the mic. Rollins has been able to show off his promo skills on WWE TV on many occasions as he’s received a significant amount of mic time

It’s no big secret that many WWE promos are scripted, but during a recent episode of Sports Media with Richard Deitsch former Universal Champion Seth Rollins revealed that he hasn’t been using a script.

“I would say almost 0% scripted in the sense that I don’t write things down on a piece of paper, and read them and memorize them that way. That doesn’t really work for me,” Rollins admitted. “Scripted in the sense that I have a pretty good idea of what I want to say when I go out to the ring and grab the microphone, but like I said, it’s not written down. It’s almost written in my head on a little tablet in my head. There’s no piece of paper for me, I can’t do that. I’ve tried it. It just doesn’t fly for me. I cannot be authentic in that way.

“Say you’re doin a play, or a TV show, there’s tons and tons of takes, and you’ve got a script that you do, if you’re on Broadway, you’re doing the same thing pretty much every single night. And so you get accustomed to knowing how you should act during certain parts of what you’re saying, but wrestling is different, and it’s different every week and it’s episodic television. It changes so quickly. For me, script wise, almost nothing is written on a piece of paper for me at this point.”

Seth Rollins will face Edge at WWE SummerSlam on Saturday, August 21st. Stay tuned for updates.
