Seth Rollins should be more like Jon Moxley according to Arn Anderson

Seth Rollins should be himself in the WWE like Jon Moxley is in AEW according to WWE Hall of Famer and one of the four horsemen, Arn Anderson.

Arn Anderson discussed Money in the Bank 2015 on the latest edition of his ARN Podcast. The main event of that pay-per-view was Seth Rollins’ defense of his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against Jon Moxley, who was known as Dean Ambrose back then. Naturally the pair and their careers were then discussed.

Anderson spoke about how all three members of the Shield brought something different. Roman was the powerhouse of the group, Dean Ambrose (Jon Moxley) was the wild card and Seth Rollins the one who regulated everything.

“My nickname to him to this day is crazy man, because you never knew what that guy was going to do, ‘Anderson said of Moxley. “He was such a diversified all over the place type worker in a positive sense. He would just go out and just keep coming and doing things. The guys who could keep up with him ended up having a great match.

“Seth [Rollins] is that guy that can put the battle plan together. He’s a wrestler’s wrestler. He thinks in terms of the big picture, how does he plug himself in at the right time, how do the other guys fit in. He was an architect,” Anderson added. “Each one brought something different. Roman was the steamroller, Ambrose you didn’t know what to expect, and the one that was in there regulating everything was Seth.”

Despite the praise he levied on Rollins, Anderson argued that his character undergoes so many changes that it impacts his influence on his character. By letting Moxley be himself, he believed that AEW had done a better job with one of their top talents.


“A talent like Seth Rollins, how many times has he been a baby face or a heel?” Anderson said. “There’s a guy that’s a diamond. Just polish him up, you don’t need to try and change his chemical makeup. The Shield guys, you see how special Ambrose is being himself right now [in AEW]. When you got a race horse, let him run.”
