At WrestleMania 31 on March 29 at Levi’s Stadium, Seth Rollins cashed in his “Money in the Bank” contract to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion for the first time in his young career.
One man who wasn’t a fan of that historic moment is Chael Sonnen, who recently had TNA star Kurt Angle on his podcast to talk some amateur wrestling.
Sonnen also offered his thoughts on WrestleMania 31, including his thoughts on why Rollins’ title win was a big mistake:
“How do you put the strap on a guy that lost an hour earlier? How do you say he’s the greatest wrestler in the world when I just saw him get beat?”
“I was never into Seth [Rollins] to start with. First off you have a girl’s hairdo – trim your hair if you’re a guy. He tried his damnedest to work an angle with Jon Stewart. That’s a tough sell for me. When a guy is so desperate that he’s willing to bring in a comedian to get a push, it’s weird. When a dude sees himself in that light, worthy of having to take on somebody like that at the biggest show of the year – if you don’t see yourself in a higher worth, how can I?”
Sonnen is referring to Rollins losing to Randy Orton on the second match of the card.
