Seth Rollins buries Vince Russo and Jim Cornette.
Seth Rollins was a recent guest on Mohr Stories with Jay Mohr, where he was asked who he would side with in the heated public feud between former WWE head writer Vince Russo and veteran manager Jim Cornette.
“So, I hate them both. I think they’re both jackasses. But if you had to pick — if you were like, gun to your head — which one would you side with? I’ve hung out with Cornette because Cornette was a booker of mine. He was fine. He’s super entertaining. I mean, the guy can still cut a promo. He’s just a victim of the hot-take culture where he has to say the craziest thing that comes to his brain, and that’s how he makes his money on his podcast.
“They’re both idiots. But if I had to pick one, it’d be Cornette. He hates Vince Russo with a passion. That is real. [Does anybody love Vince Russo other than Vince Russo?] Nobody that I’m aware of. He’s just a hanger-on, man. That guy’s an idiot.” [H/T NoDQ.com]
Seth Rollins almost got fired in WWE NXT
Elsewhere in the interview, Rollins revealed that Triple H nearly fired him from WWE during his NXT days due to his attitude.
“I was close. I was on the chopping block. They told me, ‘One more, and you’re gone. I don’t care how good you are, you’re not going to get a chance to show the world, we will fire you.’ I had that conversation with Triple H.”
