It was probably no big deal between the two. But Rollins trolling Ali on twittrr last night for Mania came off as a dick move to me

They totally need Shane McMahon to come out first to troll the internet and then have Cody come out and beat him up and take his spot.

Not that it's a massive deal in the wider perspective and the least of WWE's problems but it says a lot that the outcome of this whole story has involved people wanting a trolling to happen rather than about how good the potential match might be. I don't know, just comes off as weird to me.

I think in some cases it's because people get more enjoyment out of WWE doing the wrong thing than them actually seeing through the story, good or bad as it may be. That's my view of it, at least.

Which both makes sense and seems exceptionally weird at the same time.

During an interview with Jimmy Traina of the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast, Seth Rollins commented on his WWE Wrestlemania 38 storyline of trying to find an opponent… “You do what I’ve been doing and you try to make it work. That’s what I’ve done the last few weeks, try to work my way into WrestleMania. People say, ‘this is ridiculous, this is preposterous, you’re Seth Freakin Rollins, how can you miss WrestleMania?’ If you only knew how close to the truth this storyline was, your mind would be blown. This is a very legitimate situation for me. The pieces went haywire at Day 1 in Atlanta. COVID blew the whole thing up, you see Brock Lesnar walk out with the WWE Championship, all hell broke loose, and its dominoes. Everything has to fall. Bobby Lashley gets hurt. Everything is chaos after that. This is a very legitimate situation that has translated to screen time every Monday and it’s been a fun story because it’s the only match that is up in the air. It’s the only thing you can follow every week and go, ‘what’s going to happen next? What are these weird crossroads we’re going to get into to get into the finish line?’ It’s been fun. Not my ideal way to go into WrestleMania, it’s a lot of extra stress, but it’s been a party and we’re going to get there one way or another. I’m very excited to get to Dallas and I’m going to have my WrestleMania moment one way or the other.” Poor guy.

I’d unironically be excited for Marko Stunt vs. Seth Rollins.

I actually like this Rollins storyline because it's actually pretty different than most WM storylines and it's entertaining. Yeah it doesn't make any sense that someone of his caliber doesn't have any opponent but he's so animated, into it and it's so outlandish that just going with the flow is funny to me. If Seth early Monday Night Messiah Seth it wouldn't work as well. His current character is so good.
Now you factor in "WWE-like Cody Rhodes" and damn that's a great mix. They're both huge characters.
Basically I love the silliness.

In the good old days, they could’ve just shipped his ass off to WWE New York, for some complimentary Bushwhackin' Buffalo Wings or Pug Porteau Potato Skins. But these days, everybody just has to have anrole in the school play.

Basically I love the silliness. See, I absolutely get what you’re saying…but there’s a limit. Seth could still play that character and he can still have those mannerisms and all this…but you can still recognize his level through it. People here pitched the idea of Seth having a big ego and basically blowing off other ideas because he’s too big a star for them because…well, after two world title matches the previous two PPVs, he would be. So go with that. Nothing else has to change and you can have that silliness. Just breaks with my suspension, personally. It also doesn’t help that the payoff to all of that was the most un-silly way of doing it. Vince just going “You’re too big a star” and booking him anyway when Seth basically threatened to hijack the show after throwing a strop last week? A real dropped ball.

I retweeted Seth's Marko Stunt tweet and a friend of mine who doesn't even watch wrestling replied to tell me Marko was cute, and I told her he sings too, so now I've got her running off to Youtube to listen to his music. You're welcome, Marko lol
