WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins made a bold statement about his place in wrestling history during a recent media appearance. While on ESPN’s “First Take” on Tuesday, Rollins declared that when his career is finished, he will be regarded as one of the four greatest superstars of all time.
The “Mount Rushmore” debate is a frequent topic of discussion among fans and wrestlers alike. Rollins stated that his body of work will place him among the absolute elite to ever step into a WWE ring. During the interview, Rollins was asked about his status in the company and did not hold back in his take on his own legacy.
“Superstar, not just of my generation, but of any generation in the history of this company, when it’s all said and done, when I hang up the boots, when I put the robe on the shelf for the very last time, I will be on the Mount Rushmore of this industry, no question about it, that’s what I bring to the table.”
He is a multi-time WWE and World Heavyweight Champion, a Grand Slam Champion, and one of the few superstars to have won both the Royal Rumble and the Money in the Bank ladder match. His legacy also includes being the inaugural NXT Champion and a member of The Shield.
He continues to build on that legacy, as he is currently just days away from competing in a mixed tag team match at the WrestlePalooza Premium Live Event this Saturday when he teams with Women’s Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch against CM Punk and AJ Lee.
