Seth Rollins Talks Mentioning Jon Moxley During Recent Promo, More

Seth Rollins did an interview with TalkSport to promote Saturday’s WWE Royal Rumble where he will challenge Universal Champion Roman Reigns for the title. Here are some of the highlights: 

Mentioning Jon Moxley during recent WWE SmackDown promo:

“It’s just an easter egg, I think, for some of the fans that have enjoyed [The Shield] and stuck around, followed us for years and stuff like that. It would be very easy to tell the story of The Tribal Chief versus The Visionary, that’s a simple story and obvious for those who watch on a weekly basis but if you follow the industry and you pay attention and you know where we came from, you know there was a third guy in the mix.”

“I’m not going to sit here and ignore that history, I’m going to bring that up because I think that’s important. And I think people who care about that appreciate it. It’s one of those things where it was on the tip of my tongue, it made sense, so it came.”

His feud with Edge: 

“It’s one of those things where you have the possibility in your mind and then seven years ago it was ‘ah, what if?’

“You spend your free time day dreaming about it. Then a few years ago you hear ‘wait, he’s making a comeback?’ Then it’s like wow, this could be a real possibility. Then when it’s right at your front door, you’re was excited, obviously, but you want to make it as interesting and as memorable as possible because it’s such a special pairing, but at the same time, you don’t want to screw it up because the expectations are so high. 

“It’s very rare that you get a situation where the expectations are through the roof and, at least I feel, we got to exceed those expectations. That doesn’t happen very often, especially in modern wrestling today where everything is hyped up so much. 

“I’m really proud of what we did and I think when I look back on it in a decade or longer, it will be something that stands the test of time.”
