Seth Rollins Calls The Rock an ‘Old Man,’ Says He’ll Beat Him at WrestleMania

Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins unite: Raw, July 17, 2017

Seth Rollins recently did an interview Eagle 977, where he discussed getting another shot at Brock Lesnar, having a WrestleMania match with The Rock, and who he thinks his biggest WWE rival has been thus far.

On facing The Rock at WrestleMania:

“Obviously Rocky, he’s a little busy these days, he’s doing some Hollywood things, doing some movies, making TV shows, all sorts of good stuff. If the opportunity came about, I would have no problem taking on The Rock at WrestleMania, sounds like a good time to me.”

On if he could beat The Rock: 

“Oh, absolutely, I’m in the prime of my career right now. The Rock, he’s past his prime, he’s had his day, he’s an old man at this point in time. I’m young, and youthful, and vibrant. I’m ready to go.”

On another match with Brock Lesnar:

“If it were up to me, it would be tomorrow, ya know? But you got to wait for those title shots. Our champion currently is Brock Lesnar on Raw – our Universal Champion – and he is a force to be reckoned win. He is also somebody who chooses to defend his title and fight on his own time. So you really gotta be kind of lucky to land those title shots.”

On who his greatest WWE rival has been:

“Ironically enough, my biggest rival is also somebody that I found myself recently aligned with and that was Dean Ambrose. Ya know, Dean Ambrose is somebody that I broke in with – The Shield – and we had a falling out and things didn’t go very well for us for awhile. But recently, we’ve kind of gotten back on the same page – to a certain extent – but we’ve had some big fights over the years.”
