Seth Rollins Recalls Being "P*ssed" About WWE Money In The Bank 2013
That pay-per-view was a watershed moment for the 'Monday Night Messiah'...
Seth Rollins revealed on Twitter that he, partner Roman Reigns and The Usos were "so p*ssed" about their role on WWE's Money In The Bank 2013 pay-per-view.
The quartet's Tag-Team Title match was demoted to the pre-pay-per-view Kickoff show, and that didn't sit well with them. Feeling slighted, they made a backstage promise to steal the show; being bumped to the pre-show lit a fire under all four, and it ended up being a watershed moment for Rollins and Reigns in particular.
Since then, neither man had been asked to work on the Kickoff portion of any pay-per-view broadcast.
Seth admitted that he, Roman, Jimmy and Jey went into the match with an "extra chip on our shoulders". They were determined to prove company management wrong and ended up having a top (if probably largely forgotten) tag bout that warmed up the Philadelphia crowd nicely.
The Shield retained their gold that night, but they'd never forget being overlooked for the main card on one of the bigger pay-per-views of the summer.
Interestingly enough, The Usos didn't acknowledge Rollins' tweet, and instead posted their own response to WWE's original recap. It simply said, "Top 5".
