Seth Rollins is one of the most prominent superstars on the WWE roster. However, the Visionary received a lot of flak for his performance on RAW this past Monday as wrestling veteran Vince Russo bashed him for making Bronson Reed look weak.
Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed have been feuding over the last several weeks. They will face off at Crown Jewel this Saturday, ahead of which they were involved in a parking lot brawl on RAW.
Speaking on his podcast, Vince Russo called the former World Heavyweight Champion out for throwing weak punches during the brawl. Russo also questioned Seth's wrestling school's association with the newly launched WWE ID program.
"Bro this is a 300 lbs pound man and you’re gonna attack him with freaking egg beaters? Here is the funny thing, Seth Rollins’ school is now one of the accredited schools under WWE ID. His school? So he can teach future wrestlers how to punch like Mambi Pambi?" [16:13 - 16:52]

The wrestling veteran noted that the Visionary's actions made Bronson Reed look like a little girl:
"I swear man, if I am Bronson Reed, when I get in the back with freaking Seth Rollins, I am cutting the promo of all promos on him because what did he do bro? You made him look weak. ‘ You’re out there, hitting me, punching me like a girl, therefore you made me look like a girl.’" [17:45 - 18:13]
Ex-WWE writer believes Seth Rollins could win at Crown Jewel
Seth Rollins has not been much active inside the squared circle since dropping the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 40. The Visionary has been dealing with multiple health issues, and his match against Bronson Reed at Crown Jewel will be his first televised match in nearly four months.
While Reed has established himself as a credible threat ahead of the match, ex-WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. still believes that Rollins will be the one to talk out with the win:
Seth has done some jobs for guys lately and done some work and it's probably time for some guys to do the work for him. But man, it would be wild if Bronson won that because he is a legit big guy, like if he got his hands on 90% of the roster, it would be kind of a wrap in real life."
Rollins recently competed in a Dark match against Dominik Mysterio to train for his upcoming battle. The former WWE Champion has wrestled in just two matches since WrestleMania XL.
