5 Controversial things WWE Superstars said in 2020: Roman Reigns' bold claim, Seth Rollins on The Undertaker

#3 Seth Rollins makes a controversial statement about The Undertaker

Back in May 2020, Seth Rollins appeared on Corey Graves' After The Bell podcast and discussed a wide variety of topics with the WWE announcer. At one point during the discussion, Rollins made a comment about how The Undertaker's character doesn't work today. Rollins was talking about how fans got a closer look at the character in The Last Ride docu-series, and if fans had seen it back in the 90s, it would have ruined The Undertaker's character for them.

WWE fans didn't take the comments lightly, as expected

Fans were bound to keep fixated on that one line about how 'The Undertaker's character doesn't work today', and Rollins received some major heat from the WWE Universe for his statement. There were many who sided with him, while others put across the argument of how someone like The Fiend is doing well for himself in today's environment. The Fiend is also a supernatural character that is similar to The Undertaker in a lot of ways. Rollins pointed out the case of Bray Wyatt as well and dubbed him an exception.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
