13 Things We Learned From Seth Rollins On Talk Is Jericho
Restore. Rebuild. Re-interview.
Seth Rollins has once again brought some excitement to the wrestling world with his anticipated return at Extreme Rules. The man who never lost the Title has reignited his rivalry with his former stablemate Roman Reigns and is right back in the main event where he belongs.
This is his second time on Talk is Jericho, and this time around Rollins is a much more established player in the company, free to speak a little more candidly, and open up about certain things.
He discusses his injury and the toll it took on him both physically and mentally, who he can't wait to get in the ring with now that he's back, the banning of the curb stomp/transition to the pedigree, and Randy Orton's desire to "play it safe" in the ring.
Read on to find out what we learned.
13. Making His Return
The two chop it up with some banter about fan art they’ve received, with Chris stating that anytime he receives some “less than professional quality” renderings he always sends them to Seth, citing a selfie they took during Rollins’ first time on Talk is Jericho as inspiration. Y2J then dives right in asking Seth what it felt like to return after several months on the shelf.
The former WWE world champion said it felt amazing, he spent the entire time he was on the sidelines waiting around and wondering what it would be like when he finally got back out there, but his comeback at Extreme Rules and the following Monday Night Raw were awesome. Rollins says that the fans have been great and incredibly supportive throughout this entire process and is happy about the reception he got when he returned.
He says the old cliché about it being just like riding a bicycle isn’t true in his case because you get out of practice and worry that you’ve forgotten how to perform. He was a little bit nervous about getting back out there, wondering ‘Can I do this again? Will it be everything I remember?’ but “Literally once I got out there and put the microphone I my hand I was like ‘Oh yeah, I got this.’”
