Seth "Freakin'" Rollins has a lot of freakin' thoughts about CM Punk.
During a recent appearance on The DC & RC show with former UFC Champion Daniel Cormier and former NFL Super Bowl Champion Ryan Clark, "The Visionary" and "The Revolutionary" shared his thoughts on the WWE return of "The Best in the World" at length.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On how he's happy for CM Punk’s fans but admits he still has his reservations about him being back in WWE: "The Punk thing is interesting. It’s interesting. I never thought in a million years we’d be at this point. When he came out at Survivor Series and came back, it was really a surreal moment. In some ways, I’m really happy for the fans, for his fans, that have been wanting to see this moment for him for a very long time. I just don’t want the problems that he brings. I really don’t. WWE is in an incredible place. I feel like I’ve been an anchor of that for the last decade. In the last few years, we’re starting to skyrocket. You look at the Netflix deal. Huge news. Huge news for our industry, for the entertainment industry, for live sports in general. It’s going to be a massive shift. I feel like I’ve been a big part of that."
On how WWE has ascended over the last few years and doesn’t think Punk has any right to try and take a piece of the pie when he didn’t help that in any way: "One thing I don’t want is somebody like that, who has caused problems and been a selfish jerk everywhere he’s gone, I don’t want him to come in here and ruin what we’ve done and what we’ve built. He doesn’t deserve a piece of that pot. He doesn’t deserve it. He hasn’t put in the time. He hasn’t done anything. He went away and he stayed away. All he did the entire time he was gone was complain, whine, and moan and try to tear this place down. In spite of him and in spite of his efforts, we made this the best and biggest wrestling company on the planet. Grown it beyond what anybody’s imagination would have ever dreamed. I don’t want him coming in here…I’ve used the word cancer before, I don’t want to get too deep into it. I don’t want him to be the reason this thing takes a nosedive or even takes a dip. He doesn’t deserve that."
