Seth Rollins Admits WWE Career Is Closer to the End

Seth Rollins isn’t ready to hang up his boots just yet—but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t thought about the finish line.

During a recent appearance with his wife Becky Lynch on The Ross Tucker Podcast, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion opened up about the reality of aging in the wrestling business. When asked if he’s started thinking about his final match, Rollins didn’t shy away from the subject. He made it clear that while retirement isn’t around the corner, he’s keenly aware of the ticking clock.

“I got a lot more years left in the tank, so I’m not sure that I’m there just yet,” Rollins said. “But, I mean, I think often about, I guess, the mortality of my career because, you know, I started when I was 17, 18, and now I’m nearly 40 and I’m certainly not going till I’m 60. So, I’m almost, you know, closer to the end than the beginning.”

Rollins continued, reflecting on what that looming finish line means for his goals in WWE.

“I think about, I suppose, like the mortality, the fact that it’s winding down and maybe there’s like some urgency to do some things that I haven’t done or contribute in a different way. But my last match, my last moment—that’s… I feel so far away that I haven’t quite got there yet.”

As for Becky Lynch, the thought hasn’t crossed her mind. When asked the same question, she kept it simple, “No, not yet.”

The segment offered a rare glimpse into how two of WWE’s top stars view the future. Rollins isn’t planning a goodbye tour anytime soon—but he’s clearly mapping out how to make these next few years count.
