Seth Rollins WWE

Seth Rollins has named his Mount Rushmore of potentially some of the greatest in-ring performers of all time.

Speaking on Club Shay Shay, Rollins was asked about his Mount Rushmore of WWE stars, and he responded by sharing several legendary names based on their in-ring performance and talent. Over the years, several wrestlers have revealed their own versions of the wrestling Mount Rushmore, and now Rollins has his own.

“If you wanna go like in-ring all time, you’re looking at Shawn Michaels, you’re looking at Eddie Guerrero, you’re looking at, after that it gets real hard,” Rollins said.

“Dynamite Kid was really good, but he was kind of a jerk, Bret Hart was really great. You could put Ric in there as well. Flair was special. Dusty was a special promo, but Dusty’s in-ring work wasn’t blowing anyone out of the water.”

“Bryan Danielson would be up there, I think. I’d like to be in the conversation at some point. AJ Styles, who also just retired, is someone who is one of the greatest of all time in the ring. It’s a fun discussion, but it’s hard to narrow it down.”

However, Rollins also noted that when discussing a Mount Rushmore of WWE’s biggest names, it would arguably include Hulk Hogan, Bruno Sammartino, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and The Rock based on their drawing powers and the money they brought in.
