The energy that the WWE Universe has provided Seth Rollins as of late is at an all-time high.
WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins recently sat down with Yang-Yi Goh of GQ. When asked if the energy he is currently feeling from the WWE Universe is different than he’s ever felt before, Rollins compared it to his time in The Shield.
“Oh, hands down,” Seth Rollins said. “I mean, look, you want to go back a dozen years, it probably rivals the energy of [Rollins’ iconic WWE faction] The Shield’s entrance. There’s something special about coming in right through the people—that really riles you up, because you’re just in there with it.
“But for me as a solo performer, the energy and the relationship I have with the audience at the moment is on another level. It’s 13 years into my WWE career now. It’s something I could have never expected. So, it’s really fantastic to be at this point, to be having so much fun, and to feel like everyone’s out there having fun with you. As soon as the “Burn It Down” hits your ears, it just feels like a party out there. And I’m very, very, very humbled to be at the center of that.”
Becky Lynch is jealous of Seth Rollins’ WWE fashion
When asked how his wife, Becky Lynch, feels about his fashion choices as of late, Rollins admitted that she’s a little jealous.
“Well, I won’t lie: She’s a little jealous,” Seth Rollins said. “When she was in her Big Time Becks era, she was rocking some wild fits too. But now that she’s back to being [her in-ring persona] The Man, she’s a little more subdued. She has a lot more fun in real life: She’s got a crazy shoe collection, and she loves dressing like a crazy person.
“I had a sequined tracksuit the other week on Raw, and she was so upset. She said she’d been trying to hound one down for months and couldn’t load it up, and then it showed up in my care package from Troi. So, she gets jealous, man. We got a good competition going on to see who can out-crazy the other.”
