WWE’s Seth Rollins has named his pro-wrestling Mount Rushmore, believing an AEW star should feature on the wrestling-themed landmark.
Speaking on the Pat McAfee Show, Rollins stated that Hulk Hogan, Cena, The Rock and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin would be the names he’d choose, if purely talking about the biggest draws.
Rollins named Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, Eddie Guerrero and Bryan Danielson as the in-ring wrestlers he’d include on the landmark, noting:
“Are we talking wrestling or are we talking drawing money because those are different things? In our business, which is the entertainment business, money-drawing is the biggest thing. If we’re talking there, you gotta start with Hogan. You gotta put Cena there, Rock and Austin. Top four.”
“In-ring all-time: Shawn Michaels, Eddie Guerrero, Bret ‘the Hitman’ Hart…number four, controversial pick because he’s still active, Bryan Danielson. I actually think in-ring he’s one of the greatest of all time and I think when it’s all said and done, he’ll be up there with the guys.”
Rollins and Bryan last shared the ring in April 2021 during a tag-team match. Their last singles encounter took place on the June 17, 2019 edition of WWE Raw. Danielson’s WWE contract expired after his Universal Championship match against Roman Reigns in April 2021. He debuted for AEW at All Out that September.
Danielson has reportedly been talked about for a TNT Title feud. Stay up to date with every AEW title change in 2022 at this link.
