WWE's announcers are there to push the promotion's agenda, not necessarily to tell the truth. It was refreshing then when both Michael Cole and Corey Graves gave their honest thoughts on Seth Rollins.

They're right, it has taken Seth a while to find his mojo again after suffering a nasty knee injury in 2015, and it's only recently that he's started looking like the Rollins of old again. It was nice to hear the commentary team admit that without any WWE spin.

Better yet, it was (the usually safe) Cole who brought it up. Graves merely added his two cents that Rollins is back to his best once again.
