The closing shot of WrestleMania 31 saw Seth Rollins holding the WWE Championship, and this is something that Rollins allegedly told The Young Bucks that he’d achieve before he even signed with WWE.
In their book, AEW EVPs The Young Bucks have shared a story of Seth Rollins from their time on the independent circuit together where Rollins (then Tyler Black) told them confidently that he’d main event WrestleMania one day.
In an exert from their new book, which you can see below, The Young Bucks talk about how Rollins was “misunderstood” by his fellow workers and was deemed to be arrogant when he was actually just relatively introverted.
One of those guys was Tyler Black. Tyler, like Kenny and me, was an introvert and seemed to be misunderstood by the other wrestlers as being arrogant. After becoming friends with him, we learned that he was just shy, yet confident in his in-ring abilities. Being around guys like Tyler gave us strength in numbers.
One of the first times we hung out late at night after a show, Tyler confidently said to us, “I’ll be in the main event of WrestleMania one day,” He’d later become WWE’s Seth Rollins, and he’d do just that.”
