Seth Rollins: 5 Things wrestling fans don't know 

#4 He's a deep thinker

Seth Rollins: professional wrestler and philosopher

WWE superstar Seth Rollins cuts one of the best promos in the business. He's a master of the mic and is one of the most talked-about wrestling personalities, due to the carefully crafted words he chooses.

The former Universal Champion is intelligent, but also might just be a philosophical genius.

Rollins summoned his inner Nick Bockwinkel and went deep with long-time friend Jimmy Jacobs,

"I think when I first drifted into the idea of nihilism or determinism - determinism is basically everything happens because something else before it happened and that is infinite. [It's a chain reaction] back to the Big Bang. All things being exactly the same in the Universe twenty seconds ago - nothing else could have been any different then it was right after that moment. That's determinism."

With the acuity of an esteemed professor, Rollins went into further detail about determinism,

"It was a weird turn for me. My whole life had always been the opposite of that. I was the one determining it. I, me, myself - I was the one making the decisions. I was the one who was saying, 'You work harder than everybody else. You make these decisions. You're responsible for everything. This is why I'm successful.' Then I started looking at things from an outside perspective and sort of ended up being a determinist and a little bit nihilistic in the sense that I didn't think anything happened for a specific reason. It just happens because it happens and we're kind of watching it go by. That terrified me, but I think I'm still on that."

The mind is officially blown.

If you're a philosophy buff, there's much more where that came from, and readers can catch the Jimmy Jacobs Doesn't Know podcast in its entirety at the end of the slideshow. If you have no idea what the former Universal Champion is talking about and are now left pondering your existence, I'd like to officially welcome you to the world of philosophy.
