5 Times WWE Superstars forgot their lines and what happened next

#1 Seth Rollins

At the 2015 WWE Royal Rumble PPV, the WWE World title was defended in a Triple Threat match starring Brock Lesnar, John Cena, and Seth Rollins. The Road to Royal Rumble saw a segment where Rollins cut a backstage promo on John Cena. Rollins told Cena that his time was up and that he should take himself out of the match. Here's what Rollins said:

What he should do is to step away, take himself out of the match at the Royal Rumble, tuck his legs, tail between his legs, and walk off saving himself with whatever dignity that he's got left.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

The WWE fans in attendance reacted loudly to the botch and Cena wasn't in the mood to forgive Rollins for the same. He responded quickly to Rollins and said that he doesn't know 'how will he tuck his legs between his legs', which garnered a big pop from the fans in attendance.

The match in question was an absolute banger, with all three competitors beating the tar out of each other. In the end, Lesnar managed to walk out with the title still secured in his hands.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
