Here is the current update regarding the current Raw star Seth 'Freakin' Rollins' interview, where he revealed playing 'second fiddle' to Roman Reigns in WWE. ##
Seth Rollins remarked while speaking with Ariel Helwani of BTSport.com, on never being "the guy" in WWE. ##
As he said: ##
"I always felt like a little bit of impostor syndrome with my first title run. I was young, 26, maybe 28, something like that. I was young, and I was working with guys who after I'd won the title that was a lot more experienced than I was. And not that I wasn’t adding anything to the stories, but I didn't feel like I was thinking about it the way, and this is all in retrospect, I don't feel like I was thinking about it in the way that says I would think about it now seven-eight years later, whatever it is. And so yeah, I never felt like even when I had won the title at WrestleMania, cashed in, great moment, I still felt like I was second fiddle to Roman [Reigns]. I still felt like he was the guy, we're just gonna — you're the placeholder until he's totally ready, and we're totally ready to put the ball in his hands. But for now, you're a step ahead, so we're going to give you this. And then you know we'll move on to what we really want to be, but it's going to take a few months. So no, I've never ever felt like I've in my time in WWE that the company was like, 'Yep, he’s our guy, put his face on everything.'" ##
Then he also questioned if he ever felt close to being the top guy, while replying he said: ##
"I don't know man. I wonder often if it's because I live in the Roman Era that that's just never going to happen, you know. The only time I was even considered I think for the main event of WrestleMania, Roman when he got leukemia, and he was out for from August till January or whatever. February it was, and I was kind of second behind in the little babyface column there, and so you know, I got slotted in. I feel like it's one of those things, I'm like the, you know, the best I can hope for is to be the Edge to his Cena, or like the Savage to his Hogan. Sometimes I just feel like that's just the way the way the cookie crumbles. Doesn't mean I don't think that I'm better than he is, or that I can perform, or that I can draw at that level. I certainly think all those things, but it's not my sandbox. I don’t make those decisions." ##
