Rollins has had quite the WWE career. Check out some of his time in the company:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that should make for an interesting change, if nothing else for the amount of hype that WWE will give the appearance if Rollins is the World Heavyweight Champion when the film is released. I’m not sure if Rollins is going to begin acting more frequently but this is quite the role. Hopefully he doesn’t miss much ring time, but this is a good start if he wants to move into acting.
What do you think of Rollins’ as an actor? Will he win the title at Night Of Champions? Let us know in the comments below.
