www.wwe.com/inside/seth-rollins-interview-27029128/About to give it a read, but figured I'd share for those who wanted to view it as well. Having watched Rollins' entire career unfold before my eyes, I can't express how incredible it is to see him in the position that he is now. Whenever he becomes WWE World Heavyweight Champion, whether it be Sunday or some time later, I'm going to cry like crazy. He deserves this.

I first saw Tyler Black in 2007 when he joined the Age of the Fall in Ring of Honor. He instantly stood out to me and I became a huge fan. He followed that with great performances against Austin Aries, Nigel McGuinness, Bryan Danielson and even Samoa Joe. I watched him win the ROH World Tag Team Titles and come very close to winning the ROH World Title. Fast forward to his title win and I was there live to see his last ever ROH match (just like I was for Bryan and McGuinness). He dropped the belt to Roderick Strong but I hoped I would see great things in his future. He killed in FCW. He killed in NXT. He killed in the Shield. He kills now. Seth Rollins is phenomenal and one of the top five performers in the company right now. Actually, the only guys that I enjoy more than him are Daniel Bryan and Sami Zayn. Seth has grown so much as a competitor and it's amazing to see him in high profile angles with the likes of Sting, Triple H and Brock Lesnar.

Amazing. Tyler Black is the sole reason I still watch wrestling to this day. The WWE was ing horrible the crap was hitting the fan in TNA and I was just about ready to give up on wrestling, then I found out I got ROH on HDNet, and there's this young hungry kid named Tyler Black killing it every week. I enjoyed ROH as a whole you had The KOW the steen generico fued, but no one captivated me like Black. I thank Tyler Black for keeping my passion for wrestling alive and I'm gonna throw an absolute ing bash when He finally wins the big one |

I was going to a ton of IWA-MS shows in 05/06 when he was just starting out. Insane how far he's come. Couldn't be happier.

I remember making a post on the other feds board in the fall of 2006 after I watched him in a no rope barbed wire match, stating that he'd be a star. I feel privileged to have seen him come up through the ranks & I know he's still going to accomplish even more.

This kid, teaming with a tiny but experienced Jimmy Jacobs as DIFH and later blew the creative juices wide open with The Age of The Fall; a compelling, original and stark faction that began with immediate impact and would showcase Tyler Black as a truly impressive young star.
This was solidified in his match(es) at Take No Prisoners 2008...especially the main event - a match that proved he could hang, without a shadow of doubt...
Proof positive that some of the very best talent can thrive no matter where they find themselves...hat's off to him...

I kinda feel the same way about Rollins as I did CM Punk watching him for years, klling it in ROH being one of the best/most entertaining guys I've ever watched in a ring Dude has MADE IT. And it really does look like the WWE believes in Rollins. That's good for us all. He's ing earned it. |

Tyler ing Black is in a Championship match against Brock Lesnar. How can that ever sink in? I believe that Ryan posted in the Raw thread saying that, a few years ago, if you would have told us that a Raw in 2015 would end with Tyler Black, Brock Lesnar and Sting, everyone would have laughed at you. |

He's definitely earned this spot. Looking forward to seeing the belt on him.

Holy that was amazing. I remember actively fighting with EVERYONE online about him winning the ROH Title. He got massively sh*t on. He flipped the switch though. I say it all the time when the subject arises. The promo he cut heading into that final TV showdown with Davey was masterful and was the seed for everything he's doing right now. His matches with Davey in general, where he's working on fire because he could let it all out, are easily the pinnacle of his in-ring career prior to WWE imo. He got his training wheels off with Nigel, Bryan and Aries, but it was his matches with Davey that showed what he would become as a star in WWE. I mean there is nothing more to say. He's where he is at because he made WWE put him there and that's what WWE needs. HHH smells his own kind too, and that's the biggest nod he can get at this point. Give him the title or riot. |

Great article, I akways thought Rollins was a great worker but couldn't talk since he was horrible on the mic in ROH but i'm happy to see he has improved dramaticly and is now one of the best heels in the business. I was in attendance when he had what I consider the best match of his career when he fought Davey Richards at Death Be For Dishonor VIII

A few years ago I watched ROH on a semi-regular basis and pretty much got to see Rollins/Black's run as Champion. He was incredibly impressive and was definitely one of the key aspects in my tuning in every week. It's awesome to see where he's netted out in WWE and I'm sure regardless of the outcome tonight, he's set to have a bright future. I will agree in that he's one of the most talented men on the roster and has the total package to be one of WWE's top guys for years to come.
