WWE

Yet again personable and frank on his heavily-criticised on-camera relationship with Becky Lynch following WrestleMania, Seth Rollins stood by their Extreme Rules mixed tag team match with Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans but didn't have a lot of other compliments for the run.

"If I could go back and keep it out of the storyline I probably would have...it caused more problems than it solved" was the sort of admittance that proved Rollins had his finger on the pulse far more so than his rank Twitter patter would have implied at the time.

Seemingly like the couple themselves, we are all better off without this being revisited.
