Seth Rollins is widely regarded as one of the greatest pro wrestlers. The veteran superstar has sometimes portrayed the perfect villain, but the WWE Universe has caught a look at another side of Rollins in recent years: Seth, the father and husband. Rollins is now opening up on how he's changed.
The Visionary began in-ring training at age 18 in late 2004, driving more than three hours each way to wrestling classes two or three times per week while managing a part-time job and community college. Rollins was sure of his future as a pro wrestler but also unsure of another major commitment: parenthood. These feelings changed when the former World Heavyweight Champion began dating Becky Lynch in January 2019. They welcomed daughter Roux in December 2020, then tied the knot seven months later.
Rollins now loves being a father. In an interview with Sal Licata and Brandon Tierney of WFAN to promote tonight's RAW, the Iowa native talked fondly about life with his wife and four-year-old daughter. Seth admitted he never thought he wanted to be a parent while growing up, but Becky was the right one.
"It’s the best, dude. I’m a girl dad. I love it, dude. I love it. When I was growing up, I never thought I wanted to be a parent. I was just kind of like real into my own stuff. And I was like, 'Oh yeah, maybe one day.' But as I got older I kind of thought, 'Ah, not going to happen.' Then you meet the right person and time comes. I mean, it’s the best thing I’ve ever done," Seth Rollins said. [H/T to F4Wonline]
