Injured WWE star Seth Rollins has weighed in on this debate: Who does he side with between Jim Cornette and Vince Russo? Both men have been outspoken over the years, and it's clear they despise one another. Being fair, an awful lot of the most visceral hate comes from Cornette's side, but Russo has never been shy about expressing his opinions on Jim either.

Rollins said: "So, I hate them both".

If he had to, Seth would pick Cornette just because of his history with the old ROH booker. However, he thinks Jim's "just a victim of the hot-take culture where he has to say the craziest thing that comes to his brain, and that’s how he makes his money on his podcast", but has called Cornette "super-entertaining" and the kind of guy who "can still cut a promo".

Meanwhile, as Rollins explained to Jay Mohr's 'Morh Stories' show, Russo is self-obsessed ("Does anybody love Vince Russo other than Vince Russo?") and "a hanger-on". He reckons "they're both idiots", so it's a real gun to the head topic for sidelined Seth.

Rollins was forced to vacate the World Heavyweight Championship after suffering a shoulder injury during his match with Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel in October. Days later, his cohorts in The Vision Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed attacked Seth on Raw to write him out of coming TV.

The irony here is that Rollins had previously worked an injury before cashing in his Money In The Bank briefcase on CM Punk at SummerSlam in August. This time, his shoulder issue is very real.
