Over the years, there have been various rules and regulations in WWE for the superstars. While some made sense, others were implemented without any logic. However, one person who remained the mind behind those rules was former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. During interviews, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns revealed some interesting things about Mr McMahon.
Seth Rollins is known for his incredible set of ring gear at premium live events. One such instance when the Visionary captivated fans with his attire was SummerSlam 2015. Rollins wore white ring gear in his match against John Cena, which received massive attention from the WWE Universe. However, fans never got a glimpse of that again.
The Visionary said that the SummerSlam 2015 attire was cool, and everyone loved him in it. Despite fans wanting to see it again, Mr McMahon was always against it. Seth Rollins recalled that and said that it was probably in an archive now. The WWE Universe has never seen the 37-year-old wearing any white gear since then.
On the other hand, Roman Reigns went through a similar situation in the past. During a match against Braun Strowman in Fastlane 2017, Reigns wore black shoes with a white sole. While he normally wears black soles, he decided to make a change for that match. As a result, it received massive attention from fans.
However, Vince McMahon never liked the idea. Speaking with Notsam Wrestling, Roman Reigns said that he decided to match his white soles with his white vest and gloves. The Tribal Chief revealed that there was one person in WWE who didn’t like that. “I thought it looked sweet! One person didn’t and he’s a very important person,” he said.

Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins’ current storyline transcends

Roman Reigns‘ ongoing storyline is one of the most compelling things currently going on, on WWE television. The Tribal Chief is currently involved in a program with his own faction, The Bloodline. From drama to emotions, it has witnessed everything in the last few months. With Jimmy Uso turning on Reigns, it will be interesting to see how things shape up.
On the other hand, Seth Rollins created history at Night of Champions, becoming the new World Heavyweight Champion. Therefore, the fans will witness many incredible feuds and storylines in Raw in the upcoming months. With Rollins as the champion, the Red Brand will once again witness some high-voltage matches for the main title.
