Seth Rollins Fires Back at Dana White for Calling WWE “Fake”

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins fired back at Dana White, who is the President of UFC, for claiming that WWE is “fake.” As previously reported, the former TNA, ECW and WWE Superstar, Taz, went on a Twitter rant in response to White’s comments, claiming that the WWE Network is $9.99 because it is “fake.”

These comments apparently did not sit well with Rollins, who chimed in on Twitter saying,

Guys, cut @danawhite some slack. I mean he’s had a million matches, so his opinion is super valid and should be taken as gospel.

The original comments were posted on Twitter, where White responded to a fan who said he’d like to watch UFC’s Pay-Per-View on July 31, but that he can’t because it costs a lot more than the $9.99 a month WWE charges for WWE PPVs. White then stated,

@RKORollins I hear u bro but fake shit should be 9.99 — Dana White (@danawhite) August 1, 2015

The fan continued to egg on White, who finally told him,

@RKORollins trust me my friend….. IT’s FAKE

Taz then responded to White saying,

What’s fake & what’s predetermined? @danawhite my body is busted up from that “fake shit” – u think u train less? https://t.co/oD5qUs7drz — TAZ (@OfficialTAZ) August 1, 2015

White’s last tweet about the situation reads as follows,

@RKORollins not disrespecting what they do. All the WWE guys I have met are awesome people but yes it’s fake. — Dana White (@danawhite) August 1, 2015

Editor’s Note:

Wow. Clearly making a comment about how WWE is “fake” has struck a chord with a lot of current and former superstars. I wonder if John Cena agrees that WWE is “fake,”after having his nose broken at the hands of Rollins this week on “RAW.”
