At WrestleMania 39, Rollins battled Paul and secured a victory against him. Rollins began his rivalry with The Maverick at Royal Rumble 2023 when he was eliminated by Logan Paul, and later also cost him the US Title at Elimination Chamber.

Speaking to Ryan Satin, Seth Rollins confessed how he did not know of the existence of Logan Paul, Bad Bunny, or KSI. All three mentioned names are extremely popular amongst the young generation, and Rollins’ statement could lead to major backlash against him.

The 37-year-old said, “So, Logan Paul and Bad Bunny are two total reasons I know, I am not hip. I ain’t with it no more. I have no idea who these people were before they came to WWE. And KSI, same thing. I am too old man. Too old. I am not cool anymore.” Despite not having bad intentions, Rollins buried Logan Paul alongside the two others with his brutally honest confessions.

As KSI made his way to WrestleMania, Rollins claimed of not having any idea about him as well. He said, “When he took his little face mask off in that Prime bottle, the whole arena knew who he was. We got a nice close-up on his face. Kudos to our production team and our cameraman. Everybody popped, they all knew who he was. And I was like, ‘Well, there’s another one. I am just a cranky old man.”
