3 Wrestlers Seth Rollins Is Good Friends With And 2 He Probably Doesn't Like

Seth r
Seth Rollins has made many friends backstage in WWE, but there are a couple wrestlers he may not like....

"The Architect" Seth Rollins has truly come into his own as a singles wrestler in WWE over the course of 2018 with his new "Burn It Down" theme and attitude, and he's arguably the company's most over babyface not named Braun Strowman.

While it seems as though Seth will be teaming up with his old "Shield Brothers" Dean Ambrose and current Universal Champion Roman Reigns for the time being, it's only a matter of time before Vince McMahon pulls the trigger on Rollins as a main event solo act...

Seth Rollins has unquestionably made some great friends behind the scenes during his six years with the WWE thus far, and quite a few of those buddies knew Rollins prior to WWE -- in Ring Of Honor. While some wrestlers have noted that Seth can at times be a little difficult to work with behind those curtains, most talent who have ever known Rollins proclaim that he's a great guy through and through.

However, despite being liked by most of his co-workers (former and current), Seth Rollins has definitely rubbed a couple Superstars the wrong way for various reasons. In WWE, the competitive nature of the wrestling business is at an all-time high, so you are bound to have wrestlers who don't get along. With that being said, today, we are going to be looking at 3 wrestlers Seth Rollins is good friends with, and 2 he probably doesn't like...

#5 Friend: Bayley

One of Seth
One of Seth Rollins' best female friends in WWE is former Raw Women's Champion Bayley...

Quite surprisingly, Seth Rollins is great friends with former Raw Women's Champion, Bayley. Despite being in NXT at different times, Seth had still shown both Bayley and Sasha Banks love for their phenomenal match-up at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn back in 2015 -- Rollins was even spotted with a tear in his eyes. Considering Bayley is widely regarded as one of the genuinely nicest women's wrestlers in all of WWE, it's definitely not hard to understand why Seth would be buddies with her.

In fact, Seth and Bayley are often work-out buddies, as they have both transitioned from the typical style of weight training to the far more dynamic fitness lifestyle of Crossfit. With both Superstars currently performing on Monday Night Raw, it's likely that Seth's and Bayley's friendship has only strengthened and grown. The picture above showcases Rollins and Bayley after a grueling Crossfit workout...

#4 Friend: Roman Reigns

Seth Rollins has become one of Roman Reigns' best backstage buddies since The Shield's split-up...

Prior to The Shield's formation in WWE, none of the three members (Roman, Dean and Seth) were very close friends, but they have definitely become so with their years spent together on the road and inside the squared circle. While The Shield was (and still is) only an on-screen faction, like most groups in professional wrestling, the members tend to become fairly close simply stemming from the fact that they are always amongst each other.

Despite having two completely different personalities, Seth and Roman have meshed very well on and off-screen, and they continue to spend lots of their road time together. The picture above showcases Seth and Reigns at a Burger King for a late-night snack of sorts, and by all means, this certainly isn't the diet Rollins or Roman stick to on a regular basis, so don't get any ideas that you can look like Seth or Reigns on a Burger King or McDonalds diet!

#3 Probably Doesn't Like: Zahra Schreiber

Zahra Schreiber and Seth Rollins have quite the history together...

Right from the get-go, it was clear that Seth Rollins was one of the WWE's "chosen" Superstars destined to achieve great heights in sports entertainment. However, there was unquestionably a time when the WWE's faith in Rollins was tested -- and yes, it was at the worst possible time considering Seth was the Money In The Bank briefcase holder.

Back in 2015, one of the biggest stories to come out of the year was in regards to Seth's scandal involving his ex-fiancee and ex-WWE wrestler, Zahra Schreiber.

Seth Rollins' fiancee had become aware that he was cheating on her with Zahra, and following this, Seth's fiancee proceeded to leak explicit photos of both Seth and Schreiber.

Rollins would quickly release a public apology for the leaks which were seen on his Instagram account, and WWE seemingly looked past this rather embarrassing Seth Rollins moment. Seth and Zahra would split-up very quickly following this incident, and they are no longer following each other on social media...

#2 Friend: Dean Ambrose

Dean
Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins are "brothers" on and off-screen....

While Seth Rollins is great friends with Roman Reigns, if there's a current WWE Superstar Rollins is as close or closer to, it would undoubtedly be "The Lunatic Fringe", Dean Ambrose. Although Seth and Dean seem like polar opposites, similar to Seth and Reigns, the two Shield Brothers have meshed very well together regardless. Seth and Dean often travel together on the road, and they are both known to check out various restaurants and bars during their never-ending grueling schedules in WWE.

It cannot be argued that Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose have phenomenal chemistry on-screen, as the two talented wrestlers have put on some fantastic matches and overall feuds in the recent past -- something many fans are eager to witness once again with Ambrose's return from injury. Seth and Dean may be buddies right now, but all signs point towards an inevitable heel turn for Ambrose, and when and if this happens, Seth will unquestionably be Dean's first rivalry...

#1 Probably Doesn't Like: Bret Hart

Bret Hart has dished out some chosen words for "The Architect" Seth Rollins...

Despite being one of the best wrestlers in the world today, even the likes of Seth Rollins are not immune to criticism from not only the fans, but other wrestlers as well. Without question, some of the hardest criticism Seth has taken in his career thus far stem from one of the all-time wrestling greats, Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

In various interviews, Bret has made his feelings about Rollins clearly known, and unfortunately, some of them are not very positive.

Despite praising Rollins as being one of his favorites, he went on to state that Seth is a rather dangerous and unsafe performer -- alluding to Seth's various botches which injured opponents including Finn Balor, John Cena and WCW icon, Sting.

In an interview last month, Seth gave fans insight on the backstage reaction to Bret's comments regarding "The Architect". Apparently, the reaction was in Seth's favor, and most talent felt Hart's comments were unwarranted and ridiculous. Although Bret Hart is one of Seth's childhood idols, Rollins stated that Bret hurt his feelings to an extreme -- it's likely they are not on the best terms...
