Former WWE Champion Says Seth Rollins ‘Speaks For The Locker Room’ About Roman Reigns & The Rock

WWE

A former WWE Champion has discussed Seth Rollins’ comments about The Rock and Roman Reigns, noting he ‘speaks for the locker room’.

The Rock made his return to WWE SmackDown on the February 2 episode of the show, where it looked as if he was set to replace Cody Rhodes against Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 40.

Following The Rock’s return, Seth Rollins has cut scathing promos on both Rock and Roman Reigns, calling them part timers who are taking spots away from the full-time members of the WWE roster.

Rollins ended up fighting alongside Cody against Rock and Roman at the WrestleMania 40 press event, and a former WWE Champion has now commented on Rollins’ comments on the pair.

Speaking on WWE’s The Bump, former WWE Champion Big E discussed the segment, noting that Rollins ‘speaks for the locker room’ in regards to his comments on the part time stars.

He said:

“I think he speaks for, in many ways, the locker room of guys who are there week in and week out, who are there on a nightly basis. That grind, it really builds a certain camaraderie and a certain respect for each other. Even if you don’t see eye-to-eye, ‘I respect that you’re here every single night.’

“Look, on the same hand, the goal is really, in many ways, to become a Roman, to become a Rock, to be in a position where you’re not there every single night, where you’re an attraction, where you’re special. It’s really this dichotomy, is back and forth, which I really love, this push-pull, because who could ever blame a Roman or The Rock for being in a position like that? For us as hungry guys who are really there on a nightly basis, really pushing the product forward with what we’re doing on a weekly basis, it’s special. So I love that push-pull because look, we all want to be in that Rock/Roman position, too, but you also have a certain love for the guys with you who are grinding.”
