The former champion suggested that there was a balance in the industry when it came to celebrity involvement, and the promotion went over the line.

“There was a big pushback against Pat McAfee when he came in, and it’s like, yeah he’s inserted into this WrestleMania main event storyline that already had 20 years of history with Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. Our audience is like, eh, maybe not. But when Pat was on commentary for us, he did a great job. And he did a couple of matches here and there. He did one in NXT that was awesome. He worked with GUNTHER, they had a great match. It’s just, in small doses,” said Rollins. (H/T: Cageside Seats)

Rollins will be facing Bron Breakker tomorrow night at Backlash 2026 in a singles match. Breakker underwent hernia surgery following the Men’s Royal Rumble match but returned last month at WrestleMania. Breakker attacked The Architect at WrestleMania and cost him his match against Gunther.

Seth Rollins accuses WWE Hall of Famer of telling lies

Former World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins accused Paul Heyman of telling lies earlier today.

During his appearance on ESPN’s Get Up, the former leader of The Vision accused Paul Heyman of being untruthful. Rollins also suggested that Breakker was not ready for the spotlight in WWE.

“You’ve told some lies in your life; you don’t really believe half the things that come out of your mouth. I know you don’t believe one hundred percent of what I just saw come out of your mouth. The end of Seth Rollins? Sir, I am just getting started. I’ve got WrestleMania main events in the future lined up for me, Bron Breakker. He’s gonna be your cash cow? Paulie he aint ready,” he claimed.

It will be fascinating to see if Rollins can defeat Breakker tomorrow night at WWE Backlash.
