Former WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins recently spoke with TV Insider. During the interview, he discussed a wide variety of topics.
In this interview, Rollins addressed criticism that WWE is phoning in their shows, which Rollins doesn’t believe is happening. He has stated his beliefs about WWE having the best wrestling on the planet before.
“We try to put out the best show possible every single time. And I’m not just talking about Monday Night Raw or PPVs. I’m talking about every live event. I’m talking about every department. So, if you see a t-shirt that comes out that you don’t love, nobody is trying to put out a crappy t-shirt. Every department, everybody who is trying to do their jobs. Everybody that writes stories and gets in the ring, even if it’s two minutes to have a match.
Everyone gives one thousand percent effort all the time. The expectations are just so high every single time WWE does anything that I guess there is disappointment at times because expectations are through the roof. Fact is everyone loves what they’re doing and wants to be the best. That’s where all the negativity I think stems from.”
The SummerSlam pay-per-view event takes place on Sunday, August 11, 2019 in Toronto, Ontario at the Scotiabank Arena. At this show, Rollins challenges Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title.
Rollins continued by stating that fans shouldn’t throw stones at people who work for the company because they don’t understand the type of work that goes into it.
“The fact everybody wants to be so good at it and the product to be as great as it possibly can be that it’s easy to point fingers and say, ‘Well, I can do better.’ Or say things like, ‘They’re not trying hard enough.’ Until you put yourself in a talent’s shoes or anyone’s shoes in any department. You can’t throw stones. You just don’t understand the type of work that goes into it. Just having that negative viewpoint sets a bad precedent and a tone for everybody.”
