Seth Rollins believes John Cena losing his final match was the right call.
Gunther became only the fourth person to make the Cenation Leader tap out in WWE at Saturday Night's Main Event earlier this month. The ending led to an uproar of fans who believed Cena should have won his retirement match. The creative head, Triple H, even got booed by the live audience for the booking.
Discussing the bout during his interview with Jay Mohr, the Architect mentioned that he did not have a conversation about the ending with the 17-time world champion. Seth Rollins has a suspicion, however, that the whole thing was John Cena's own idea:
Personally. I think it was his idea. It’s customary in our business to, when you’re on your way out, put the guy over. If John Cena had won the match, we wouldn’t even be having the conversation today. No one would be talking about it. At the end of it, we’d be like, ‘Aw, that was great.’ That’s it. There would be no money to be made,
While not saying it out loud, John Cena himself had also suggested that the booking was his own idea during his first post-retirement interview with Cody Rhodes.
The Hollywood star had claimed that the finishing sequence of the bout symbolized him saying goodbye to his fans and peers, the same way someone on his deathbed says goodbye to his loved ones.
Apart from this, Seth Rollins also discussed WWE getting flak for their relationship with Saudi Arabia, comparing it to the company's partnership with the government in the US. You can check out his remarks on the matter here.
