The backstage life of wrestlers could be completely different from what’s on the screen. However, sometimes the action of the wrestlers on TV could be a result of the backstage heat. Surviving the heat and competitiveness backstage is not everyone’s cup of tea. Seth Rollins has been in WWE for over ten years now and has great experience in the WWE locker room.

Seth Rollins made his appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” recently to discuss many wrestling-related aspects. Speaking about the competition in the WWE locker room, Seth stated, “From the outside, you think it’s a cutthroat business and to an extent it is in some capacity, because everybody wants that top spot and everybody wants to grow as a performer and, you know, the higher up you are on the card, the more money you’re going to earn and that’s the bottom line.”

Rollins continued, “but I can totally understand where you’re coming from when you come in. [There’s still] a level of respect. It’s like, when it’s Sunday, and it’s game time and you’re going, you’re out there to kill somebody, right? You’re out there to take somebody out, but as soon as it’s not that time anymore, as soon as the game’s over or, you know, the play is over, you help the brother up off the field and that’s where we are.”

The Visionary clarified the love-hate relationship between wrestlers backstage. Seth concluded by saying that everyone wants the top spot and a better position than anyone else. However, even after this level of competition, everyone has a level of respect and brotherhood for each other at the end of the day.

Throughout his career, Seth “Freakin” Rollins has proven that he can have a great match against anyone in the world. Rollins is currently engaged in a feud with the US champion, Austin Theory. The Visionary also qualified for the U.S. championship elimination chamber match and will be locked inside with five other men. Considering the line-up, Seth is one of the guys with the best chance of walking out of the chamber as the new U.S. champion. 

After Seth is done with the chamber match, he will have his sights set on WrestleMania 39. Rollins failed to win the Royal Rumble this year because he was eliminated by Logan Paul during the match. Since then, The Visionary has been rumored to face Logan Paul at the Show of Shows. Regardless of the result at the Elimination Chamber, it looks like WWE is planning Seth Rollins vs. Logan Paul, which has huge potential.
