Seth Rollins was recently interviewed by Sports Illustrated to promote the upcoming WWE WrestleMania 40 pay-per-view event.
During the interview, the reigning WWE World Heavyweight Champion was asked which pro athlete he’d most like to curb stomp. This is an easy one for him – it’s Aaron Rodgers.
As many of you know by now, Rollins is a huge fan of the Chicago Bears and Rodgers’ tenure with the Green Bay Packers has led to many losses for the Bears.
Rollins said, “It’s got to be Aaron Rodgers, man. I’m a Bears fan – I had to deal with that for years and years and years. Just suffering, him just owning my team. By the end of it, he was just making light of it because it was so easy for him. I’d love to put a boot in the back of his head. That’d be great.”
