00:00BURN IT DOWN!
00:30BURN IT DOWN!
00:34Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Seth Freakin' Rollins!
00:45Seth Rollins weighed his one sleep away from a match that will likely define the remainder of his career.
00:54He started this week by stopping CM Punk and Roman Reigns into the ring and now he closes it with his visit to Friday Night SmackDown.
01:03Yeah, and will the fans be singing this very song at the close of Wrestlemania Saturday?
01:11Seth Freakin' Rollins who managed to drop both CM Punk and Roman Reigns this past Monday on Raw with that stomp.
01:21That will be his ticket to victory in the main event on Wrestlemania Saturday.
01:28AROUND!
01:33AROUND!
01:37AROUND!
01:39AROUND!
01:40Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
02:10Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
02:21Las Vegas!
02:26It ain't Monday, it's Friday, but I think it still works.
02:30Let's try it out.
02:31Welcome to Friday Night Rawlings!
02:37I am your host for tonight
02:42I am a visionary
02:44I am a revolutionary
02:45I am set
02:473D Lions
03:07I am a revolutionary
03:37OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC!
03:46We'll get to the OTC in just a minute, but I'd like to start with that guy whose name you were chanting first.
03:55OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC! OTC!
04:05That's it. That's the reason he came back to wrestling, right?
04:10Because all of you chanted his name for 10 long years.
04:18That's why he came back, right?
04:21Except, when CM Punk came back to the ring, it wasn't a WWE ring.
04:35So, did he come back because you guys were chanting his name?
04:40Or did he come back because somebody wrote him a big fat check?
04:46But you know, when he burned that bridge, like he burned every other bridge, he did finally come back to WWE after 10 long years.
05:03And was it because you guys chanted his name?
05:09No. It was because they wrote him another big fat check.
05:17CM Punk likes to pretend.
05:24Tell me when I'm telling lies.
05:39CM Punk loves to pretend that he came back for all of you.
05:47CM Punk doesn't care about you.
05:49He doesn't care about WWE.
05:51He's a liar.
05:53He's a fraud.
05:55He's a coward.
05:57And say what you will about Roman Reigns, Mr. OTC.
06:11The OTC, he doesn't even pretend to care about you guys.
06:28He doesn't even pretend to care about WWE.
06:34And you can believe that.
06:37The OTC only cares about the OTC.
06:43Roman Reigns is in the Roman Reigns business.
06:46He's Mr. Private Jet.
06:49Mr. Limited Schedule.
06:51Mr. Handpicked Opponent.
06:53Roman Reigns.
06:55Roman Reigns.
07:04Oh, yeah.
07:17He loves that.
07:18He loves when you love him.
07:22Roman Reigns knows nothing about sacrifice. CM Punk knows nothing about sacrifice. I know everything about sacrifice.
07:35But funny enough, guys, this whole story between myself, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk, it started 12 years ago, and it started with Paul Heyman.
07:55That's the truth. Paul Heyman brought myself, Roman Reigns, and Dean Ambrose into WWE to be a shield for CM Punk.
08:14And every single night, I sacrificed everything I had in this ring to be that shield.
08:24And did I get any of the credit? Absolutely not. Because everybody in the back wanted the cameras and the spotlight on Roman Reigns.
08:37It was always about Roman Reigns. Roman Reigns is going to be the next John Cena. Roman Reigns is going to be the next cash cow for WWE.
08:47Look at Roman Reigns. Put the spotlight on Roman Reigns. And every single year, this went along.
08:57And in the background, after CM Punk had gone away, taken his ball and went home, I heard little echoes of CM Punk chants.
09:09Meanwhile, I was making every show. I was in the ring every night, sacrificing everything that I had.
09:30And it all came to a head last year in the main event of WrestleMania, where my knee was hanging on by a thread.
09:42My stepdad was at home, dying of cancer.
09:46But I made sure, but I made sure that I was there at the very end to be a shield to make sure that Roman Reigns lost.
09:58Thank you so much, thank you so much, thank you so much.
10:22This story between us started 12 years ago when Paul Heyman brought
10:36myself and Roman into WWE and it ends tomorrow night in the most important
10:48triple threat match in the history of this industry and I promise you I will
10:59do exactly what I have done for the past 12 years I will lay it all on the line I
11:09will sacrifice everything that I have to make sure that this business
11:18this company this industry moves forward in the right direction
11:30that's not a prediction that's a spoiler
11:37oh there was depth of reality as he delivered it in the punk pipe bomb
11:46position the story and tomorrow he says wait was a glimpse into the fuel that
11:54is driving Seth Rollins ahead of his triple threat match tomorrow the main
11:59event of Wrestlemania Saturday Rollins feels but he is the one that has done the
12:05heavy lifting in carrying this industry to the elevated level it is at today whereas
12:12his opponents Roman Reigns and CM Punk are merely here for the money and the glory
