Seth Rollins has been through a lot during his career in WWE. The former Shield member has been a member of the Authority and a babyface and heel on his own. He also had his own apostles at one point in time, but Rollins turned babyface, and it seemed to stick. That was not on purpose.

WWE fans are very hard to predict. You never know what will resonate with them. Apparently, stomping Matt Riddle’s head into some steel steps is exactly what they wanted to see from The Drip God.

Seth Rollins recently spoke to the “After The Bell” podcast, where he revealed how he accidentally turned babyface. This was not on purpose, but something about his amazing suit and the fact that he was doing damage to Matt Riddle, made WWE fans cheer for him.

“[At] the end of the show, Riddle’s out there doing something. And I came out to stomp his head into the steel steps, and I’m wearing this shiny, beautiful black suit. And I end the episode by stomping his head into steel steps, thinking I’m going to hear a chorus of boos when in fact, the choir is singing my song.”
