10 Things We Learned From Seth Rollins On Stone Cold’s Broken Skull Sessions Podcast
1. Rollins Wanted To “Strangle” Vince McMahon
Finally, Rollins detested that Hell In A Cell match with Bray Wyatt's 'Fiend' persona every bit as much as 99.9% of pro wrestling fans. He had a little chuckle when Austin told him that Dave Meltzer gave it 'Worst Match Of The Year', and the pair clashed cans over that shared (and dubious) honour.
Once they'd calmed, Seth said that his vision for the Cell encounter was totally different to WWE's. He also knew it was sucking wind halfway through, described the whole experience as a "tough pill to swallow" and said he wanted to "strangle" Vince McMahon when he returned back behind the curtain. Unfortunately, Vinnie Mac had called his play, and he wanted both Rollins and Bray to make the best of it.
They tried. They really tried.
Tyson Kidd held a fired-up Seth back from Vince when he came backstage, and Paul Heyman sat Rollins down for a quiet chat away from the boss. The next day, Seth went into McMahon's office much calmer, but still told him how much his idea for the (non) finish had sucked.
