Seth Rollins wants fans to know one thing—he’s not a villain. Despite aligning himself with Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed, Rollins insists he hasn’t changed.

During his appearance on Up & Adams with Kay Adams, the WWE star pushed back against the idea that he’s turned heel and broke down how this powerhouse group really came together.

Adams asked Rollins whether he considered himself a bad guy now that he’s surrounding himself with intimidating new allies. Rollins didn’t flinch.

“I’m not a bad guy. I’m a good guy. I haven’t changed a bit. It just so happens that people have come to me. People have flocked to me.”

He went on to explain that his new alliance formed organically after WrestleMania, where he checked off every major goal on his list.

“I saw you before WrestleMania, and I told you exactly what was going to happen. I was going to put an end to Roman Reigns. I was going to put an end to CM Punk. I was going to win the main event of WrestleMania. I did all that.”

Then came the Paul Heyman twist—a move that shocked fans and shifted the balance of power in WWE.

“The only difference is that Paul Heyman—Roman Reigns’ wise man—decided that I was right all along. So I came with Paul.”

As for Breakker and Reed, Rollins said their presence wasn’t part of some grand recruiting effort—it was mutual respect.

“Then you see Bron Breakker—he wants to learn from me. Bronson Reed—we had a little thing last year, but now there’s a lot of respect between the two of us. And we’re off to the races.”

Adams then asked about the group chat dynamic with this new faction, and Rollins lit up with a laugh.

“It’s great. Shockingly, yes. Emojis, memes, gifs—like, it’s happening.”

But not everyone’s a texter.

“Bron Breakker’s not a participant. He’s not a texter. He spends a lot of time on the boat. He’s a fisherman.”

Rollins might have a new crew and a sharper edge, but don’t expect him to admit to any kind of moral shift. In his words, he’s just a guy doing everything he said he would—surrounded by a few more monsters now.

Is Seth Rollins being genuine about staying the “good guy,” or is this just a new era of villainy in disguise? Drop your thoughts in the comments and let us know where you stand on his new alliance.
