Seth Rollins reveals he is in a group chat with AEW star Claudio Castagnoli

Claudio Castagnoli had an extensive career with WWE before he moved to AEW. During his time with the Stamford-based promotion, he made a lot of friends, and one of them is current Money in the Bank winner Seth Rollins.

In a recent interview with Up and Adams Show, Seth Rollins revealed that Claudio Castagnoli was in a group chat with him and John Cena. He said:

“Oh that is a great question. You know John and I are in a little coffee group chat because we love coffee. I actually take a lot of pride in this. I am not going to take full credit. He is in there with myself and one of our other friends Claudio Castagnoli. He has been a long time friend of ours.”

It is great to see that despite working for different companies, the friendships are still strong between the wrestlers.
