Seth Rollins made his way out to the ring during tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown to talk about the “tragedy” of the disrespect he’s received from the SmackDown roster.
Rollins said that after most of the SmackDown roster abandoned him last week while he was giving a speech, he felt incredibly disrespected and that the conditions that he’s being asked to work in were “untenable.” He then said that his lawyer will be taking legal action on his behalf, before saying that Cesaro asked for what happened to him last week when Rollins attacked him.

The full letter that Rollins referred to can be read in its entirety below:
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to you to formally express my sincere disappointment and anger in the dishonorable actions of the SmackDown locker room and treatment by this company with regards to my greatly anticipated return last Friday, February 12th.
At the behest of this very office, desperate for a true leader and star of my magnitude to help lead SmackDown to new heights, I agreed to return from my personal leave and sacrificed precious moments with my loved ones. I spent considerable time and energy planning this moment that should have been a triumph, an exaltation of a multi-time World champion. Instead, I was met with an embarrassing farce.
The disregard and disrespect shown by the SmackDown superstars for shunning my inspiring message must be addressed. While I intend to deal with these patronizing ungrateful so-called Superstars in my own time, I expect the full force of this office to swiftly and forcefully reprimand those who refused to embrace my vision.
I await your response and best efforts to make amends for this incident.
Sincerely,
Seth Rollins
