While speaking to Z100’s Josh Martinez, Seth Rollins gave an interesting description of his on-screen character. He believes that his persona is not limited and there are a lot of different things he can bring to the table:
"God, it’s as if, it’s as if this crazy — if the Joker were a narcissist going through a midlife crisis. I guess that’s the best way to really put it [description of his character]. I don’t really know any other way to do it. But yeah, it’s a lot. It’s a lot happening but the cool thing about the character is it can kind of go any which way. There’s a lot of unpredictability with it and I think that’s fun, you know? You can have matches like a Hell In A Cell match with Edge, but you can also have television segments where I just laugh with my best friend Bayley for five minutes. So, you know, I just think that there’s not a lot of characters on our television program that can do all these different things and so, that’s kind of just my approach to where I’m at right now," Rollins stated.
Check out the interview in the video below:
He mentioned he could have great matches with Edge, or even end up laughing with Bayley as part of a television segment. Rollins' character work from The Architect to The Messiah and now The Visionary has been nothing short of phenomenal.
