Seth Rollins believes he's the hero of the story.
For the better part of the last three years, Seth Rollins has been intertwined with Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk. Because of that, he has been directly responsible for the character development of all three.
When asked about his upcoming triple threat match against CM Punk and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41 during an appearance on the Not Just Football podcast, Rollins confidently stated that he is the hero of this story and even proclaimed that Cody Rhodes, the current top WWE star, wouldn't be where he is without his feud with Seth Rollins in 2022 and their brief partnership in 2024.
"I’m the good guy. I’m the hero of this story. I’m here trying to protect my company from these egomaniacs and outsiders. I’m not the bad guy here. Punk is the bad guy. Roman is the bad guy. One of these people doesn’t show up for ten years, comes back in, and thinks he’s going to run the place. The other guy stops showing up for four years, stays at home, and sits on his couch. I’ve been here hustling the whole time. I put this company on my back. There is no Roman Reigns without Seth Rollins. He doesn’t exist without me. There is no Cody Rhodes, as you know him, without Seth Rollins. That guy comes back and works with anybody else? It doesn’t happen. I’m the cause of that. CM Punk, I don’t even want to get into this guy. He’s a fraud, he’s a joke, he’ll be exposed at WrestleMania," said Seth.
Roman Reigns has never claimed to be a good guy, but he has always claimed to care about the industry more than anyone else. Read his most recent statements on the state of WWE here.
