Seth Rollins\' comments about The Rock & Roman Reigns echo what many on WWE\'s roster are feeling, according to Big E.
Rollins has been vocally opposed to both the Tribal Chief and his cousin. Rollins\' issue stems from Reigns being a part-time champion, an issue that he feels will only be exacerbated if The Rock enters the title picture. Rollins has held the World Heavyweight Championship since May of last year after besting AJ Styles in the finals of a 12-man tournament at WWE Night of Champions 2023. The World Heavyweight Champion was introduced in part due to Reigns\' stranglehold on the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
Speaking for the Locker Room
In stark contrast to Roman Reigns, Rollins has proven to be a fighting champion and had 99 matches in 2023 to Roman Reigns\' eleven bouts. Speaking on a recent edition of WWE\'s The Bump, Big E addressed the harsh comments Rollins has had for Roman Reigns and his title reign.
\"He speaks for, in many ways, the locker room of guys who are there week in and week out, who are there on a nightly basis. That grind, it really builds a certain camaraderie and a certain respect for each other.\"
Despite this, Big E doesn\'t fault Roman Reigns or The Rock for accepting the very lucrative roles both are in.
\"Who could ever blame a Roman or The Rock for being in a position like that... we all want to be in that Rock/Roman position, too, but you also have a certain love for the guys with you who are grinding.
Big E has his own history with Roman Reigns. At Survivor Series 2021, the two faced off in Champion Vs. Champion action which saw Reigns defeat the then-WWE Champion.
