Seth Rollins discusses WWE Unreal, admitting that he hasn’t watched it due to it making him feel dirty.
Rollins features as a large part of the show’s second season, as it chronicles the behind the scenes of his fake injury last year in the lead up to SummerSlam. Despite being a prominent part of the show, Rollins says he still hasn’t watched it.
While speaking to 25 Whistles with Bobby Bones in a new interview, Seth Rollins admitted that he hasn’t watched the show.
“No, I can’t watch the show. I didn’t watch season one and I wasn’t even in it. I can’t watch it. It makes me feel dirty.”
Rollins continued, discussing Unreal further.
“The real name stuff’s not as bad because of the internet. But sharing the behind the scenes of how the stories happen and the ins and outs of the industry, that part feels like I’m just not totally comfortable with that. I’m not entirely on board with all of it. So even like having those interviews, I feel myself like clamming up. You know, like the sit-downs are like, ‘okay, tell me about this story.’ I’m like, how much do I want them to know? You know? So it’s like, it’s just not for me. I can’t watch it. As a fan, if I were just a fan, I would love it. That would be what I dreamed of when I was a kid. Like, tell me, tell me the juice. Like, give me, how does all this happen? This is amazing, you know? That’s what people want. But I think, especially us kind of older, anybody that’s like, been wrestling for longer than 10 years, 5, 10 years. It’s just so hard to break that wall down.”
Elsewhere in another recent interview, Seth spoke about being happy WWE: Unreal doesn’t air in real time. You can read more about that here.
