WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins says there’s always a chip on his shoulder.
In an interview with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri, Rollins was asked whether he has a chip on his shoulder. Mahjouri also brought up the claims that Rollins’ title is a secondary world championship. Rollins made it clear that he always has a chip on his shoulder.
“There’s always a chip on my shoulder. It never goes away,” Rollins said. “I’m never just coasting. I’m just being okay with being okay. If it’s not wanting to win a world championship or establish a world championship, now I’ve got people calling my world championship a secondary world championship. So now I’m out here trying to prove everybody wrong on that end. I’m not gonna be naive and think that we ain’t got a lot of work to do. Establishing a new title is difficult work. It is a hard job, and somebody’s gotta do it. I am very honored to have the responsibility to be the guy to do that. So there’s always a chip on my shoulder.
“Any time we go to any arena in the country and anybody else gets credit for filling a house or being on top or popping a rating or anything like that, I’m always gonna feel slighted by it. Not in a way that I’m jealous, I’m thrilled. Business is huge. We are the hottest ticket in twin. Anywhere we go, we’re sold-out left and right. Houses are up, ratings are up. It’s crazy to be a part of WWE right now.
Seth Rollins Wants To Be The Guy
In the same interview, Seth Rollins continued by making clear that he wants to be the marquee, and he’ll hustle to get there. He also stated that he finds something to sink his teeth into because that’s how he flows.
“I’m always, always wanting to be the guy, always wanting to be the marquee, that’s where I want to be,” he said. “If I feel like I’m not there, I’m gonna be hustling. I’m like Michael Jordan. I’m gonna find something. Even if there’s nothing, even if everything’s coming and cruising perfect, I’m gonna go out and find something to piss me off. I’m gonna find something that I can sink my teeth into. I’m going to make an enemy out of somebody so that I got something to work for because that’s just how I operate. That’s how I flow. I don’t know how to do it any other way.
