5 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Aug 13)
2. Seth Rollins Good, Edge Bad
It's been said time and time again, but the best heels really do believe their own bullsh*t. On SmackDown, Seth Rollins produced a hype video that raised some decent points. Basically, it claimed that he's had a much better WWE career than Edge, and has managed all his achievements in approx half the time.
What a guy.
This was another strong promo from Rollins, and he gets bonus points because he didn't just laugh his ass off like he'd been munching brownies with Riddle backstage too. Although the live crowd were unquestionably disappointed not to see Edge, Rollins delivered and got serious near the end of his speech.
WWE has another show to work with pre-SummerSlam as well. There, Rollins will likely get the upper hand all over again in preparation for a popular babyface win on pay-per-view. Also, how easy is it to forget just what a run Seth has had since 2012?!
