10 Exact Moments WWE Wrestlers Saved Their Job

[@theghostreckon316]

It’s interesting how Hunter didn’t see anything in Seth Rollins, and then Rollins became one of his favorite projects and mentored him on NXT and in WWE [On screen and backstage].

[@samirav1137]

That was all psychology by The Game. He said that so Rollins doesn't feel too high on himself.

[@MrLorddarktoothx]

its all about the game and how you play it

[@ianjohnson251]

All about control and if you can take it

[@mikegamikega]

Nah, that was just a deceptive management tactic. If he really saw nothing in Rollins, he wouldn’t have said anything at all about his intentions to let him go. The come to Jesus talk is practically designed for bad employees with huge upside, so the conversation kind of indicates the exact opposite.

Really hard to think of this century in wrestling with no: Brock, Batista, Rollins, or Cena.

[@splatninja9447]

Right? Those guys carried the company, I can't believe they were all fixing to be released at some point. Well, I can see Cena being fired, because apart from his debut with Angle I don't remember anything about him before the chain gang character.

[@ravinraven6913]

That is something similiar to what I said when they first started wrestling. Its really hard to watch wrestling with Brock, Batista, Rollins or Cena. I think they joined at the official start of the trash-itude era. It is all garbage, the real wrestling was last century. Now its just gimmick this and big tits that....a full unbridled meh...I think I would rather watch the Japanese or Mexican instead, and I don't speak Japanese or Spanish.
