Rollins was leaving the ring when a Barclays Center punter suddenly appeared in front of him on the ramp and tackled him to the ground. He was quickly subdued by referees, then security and finally Rollins himself, and 'The Visionary' has since spoken in depth about the whole scene.

I was thankful obviously it didn't turn out worse than it did, thankfully security and the referees were there pretty quickly and got him off me before it was able to turn any more violent than it had. It was just one of those things you don't expect to happen. I don't want to go to shows thinking it could happen, and I don't want to live my life being around fans like that and having to worry because 99.999999% of them are there to have fun, to enjoy the show and be part of it - not in that way."
