Seth Rollins breaks character to reveal the reasoning behind recent WWE announcement
WWE Superstar Seth Rollins has taken to social media to share the real reason behind a recent WWE merch drop.
Rollins became one of the most compelling heel characters on WWE TV in 2022. This is thanks in no small part to his programs against Cody Rhodes and Matt Riddle earlier this year. He also ended Bobby Lashley's United States Championship reign after The All Mighty was beaten down by Brock Lesnar.
Despite his heelish tendencies, Rollins is still endeared by many in the WWE Universe, who loudly sing his theme whenever he makes his entrance. Now, the former WWE Champion has taken a moment to address fans.
Taking to Twitter, Rollins shared images of his new WWE merchandise, featuring the harmonious chanting of his entrance theme. The merch also features a colorful image of Rollins himself. The Visionary noted that the new design was created with fans in mind, letting the WWE Universe know about their impact in his tweet caption:
"This one is because of you guys." Rollins said
This one is because of you guys. twitter.com/sethrollinsfan…
The shirt pictured in Rollins' quote-tweet is available for pre-order now through WWE's official outlets. It will be available for purchase from WWEShop.com on November 16th, and WWEEuropshop.com on November 30th.

@WWERollins You should change our name to Seth "game changer" Rollins
Seth Rollins' last defense of the United States title was against Matt Riddle on a recent edition of RAW. A misplaced Elias interference ended up costing The Original Bro the belt.
