#2 He's found the love of his life
Seth Rollins has been unlucky in love. After a well-publicized breakup with long-time girlfriend Leighla Schultz, Rollins dated former NXT Superstar Zahra Schreiber, but nothing seemed to work out for him, leaving him frustrated in the romance department.
Rollins told Jacobs,
"You've got to have some suffering to have the opposite. You have to. There's a balance to it, I feel like. There's yin and yang. I'm using Becky [Lynch] as an example, just because it's easy for me. I needed those terrible relationships before - and they weren't all terrible, but I needed bad experiences in relationships before to get myself to the point where I could be in a good relationship with her, and to be where I wanted to get married."
Lynch has entirely changed Rollins' outlook on love,
"Literally, before I was with her, at the end of my last relationship, I was considering all sorts of nonsense. I came to polygamy and open relationships. I was thinking, 'Maybe, that's it. Maybe this is what my lifestyle will be for the rest of my life. I'll never be lonely.' Then that happened and here I am in a whole different place mentally. You need suffering for happiness, I think."
Rollins and Lynch announced their engagement in August 2019 and the former Universal Champion considers Lynch to be the love of his life,
"I get to share the rest of my life with the love of my life, which I think has put me in a different place mentally. There's some crazy security to that I never thought I'd even care about having. To know that you don't have to do anything alone anymore is kind of cool."
If that doesn't warm your heart, you need to have your pulse checked. The couple are currently planning their wedding and have a daughter named Roux who was born in December 2020.
