Former WWE Superstar and Personnel Road Dogg has been reminiscing on his time as a WWE coach and has revealed about some of the company’s top stars, including former WWE Universal, WWE Champion and NXT Champion Seth Rollins.
Road Dogg described Seth Rollins as obstinate, recalling an occasion in which he observed Rollins attempting an old technique and went to him to tell him that it was anti-climatic and appeared as though the build up to it was greater than the conclusion, but Rollins refused to listen to Dogg’s advice. Road Dogg then informed NXT creator and executive director Triple H that he would never speak with Rollins again.
“He used to do this thing in the corner where he would jump up and down, and jump up and down, and run like he was in a mosh pit, and then just run and hit the guy with the forearm,” Road Dogg recalled, referring to an old move Rollins used to do. “And I thought, ‘Man, that’s so anti-climatic.’ It seemed like the build-up to it was bigger than the finish of it. So I went to him and told him that, and he said, ‘No, that’s what I do. I’m not changing it. That’s what I do.’ And I went to [Triple H] and I said, ‘Well, that kid, I’ll never talk to him again.”
