Ariel Helwani Meets: Seth Rollins (Part One) | Why his feud with Matt Riddle stems from legit heat 

I know that legit heat can create so much problems, but in few instances, it can create some of the most incredible personal storylines in wrestling. Edge and Matt Hardy being one of them.

The greatest overall talent of the “new” generation imo.

Seth gave us a lot of info in this interview. I was wondering if he was going to be half in character or all in character and he genuinely felt like himself this interview. He was very candid.

These interviews are fantastic. It's great to see wrestlers be so open about how they feel about bookings and their place in wwe.

Seth is indeed a great professional wrestler no doubt

This interview is very telling of how professional Seth is. They legit hate each other, he does not like Riddle at all but still can find something good to say about him and work with him every house show and feud on tv and still never hurt riddle, never try to, just want to put on the best show possible. That’s why Seth Rollins is my favorite, he is the best wrestler in world

Ariel always asks ballsy questions major props to this great journalist

Ariel is killing it with these interviews

It's a good feud. I remember that legit heat between them and Seth saying he'd never working with Riddle. Works perfectly for this angle 🔥

Seth has been performing at his best without getting a major push for a title. The rivalry and storytelling between him and Roman is there.

"Control my own narrative" - sorry I giggled a bit on that line.

Seth Rollins is the man! Love his current persona, the way the crowd chants his entrance music with him is incredible 👏👏👏👏

This was one of the best matches of the year hands down, all the reversals all the moves. Both brilliant characters

Looks like those 2 are brothers in arms now. I wish them many years of happiness

Ariel is the best interviewer in the game! 🤌🏽 humble, pure and true.

That was really great! I love all of the increased media coverage of WWE recently, such as the Clash at the Castle press conference and the A&E specials.

The only thing I don't appreciate about what Seth Rollins said in this interview is what he forgot to say. Riddle did state that he walked up to Rollins and apologized for what his ex wife said. And that Rollins thanked him for that and it took him by surprise. That is vital. Especially for Rollins saying Riddle "took his wife's side" which in Riddles case was not true.

Ariel's questions are so on point and TIMELY. Not doing these interviews weeks after the fact but right when they're most relevant.

Hearing about the booking process is super interesting. Getting more insight on the business side of things makes me appreciate good booking even more

Seth always gives his best and this feud has been great. Great part 1 of the interview. 👍

Body language on Rollins in this interview is different than most he and riddle may not like each other but this feud is 🔥.

Matt Riddle vs Seth Rollins Is going to be a banger

The professionalism, plus the flair he has. It looks like he's put a lot of time in applying both of those at the right spots, and it shows.

Riddle and Rollins are going to steal the show at Castle.

Where’s part 2?

Ariel is so good at his job. Another great interview.

When Seth said he thinks the best on the world that’s not a debate it’s fax. People need to realise Rollins is the best in the world right now

As a longtime mma fan, I'm not always a fan of how Ariel does things on a personal level, but bahgawd these wrestling interviews have been amazing lol. This, the one with Trip, this is a HOT streak. Definitely need more of these.

The realness ! Is amazing, I actually have been hating all the wwe content for the last 12 years no interest watching the show since the attitude era, but this is absolutely the right direction I might start tuning in again if this the direction they are going in. Well done tripple H or whoever is in charge of this new direction.. WELL DONE!

Seth Rollins talking about his legit heat with Riddle reminds me of Bret Hart talking about his legit heat with Shawn Michaels in many interviews from the late 90s to now.

He is so good. I don’t know if he’s in character or if he’s being real

i wish wwe would take a hint from bt sport and do more interviews/press conferences cause people love them. imagine like an hour or two a pay per view starts they have a press conference so the early fans and press can watch and the guys can build their matches and work on mic skills and it would be ufc like

The guys at AEW need to learn from Seth. He is willing to work with someone he doesn't like but knows the value of doing business. CM Punk vs the Elite could be a HUGE money making angle for AEW if the parties involved work something out.

This was a great interview

Man when they're all out of the business, it would be great to see a Shield sit down all 3 of them. They all are doing so well post faction.

I've really been watching wrestling long enough to know a veteran version of Seth Rollins…life's is moving at a crazy pace😂😂😂

Please hurry with part 2. This was class

Seth Rollins deserves another lengthy world title run

I like Riddle but like Seth said it's not cool the way Riddle would bash the big guys to make his way to the top. Much respect to Seth. He's a class A guy.

I've always liked hearing Seth share tidbits of knowledge he's picked up from John Cena. Hope we get another match/feud someday.

When the f is part 2 gonna be posted??

I’m ready for Rollins to stop with the goofiness and be serious because when he talks serious, he sounds like a star. He sounds like an amateur when he talks silly.

Retire the Messiah Seth! Redesign, Rebuild, Reclaim! Bring back Architect.

Love this half-shoot interview

Nearly a week later and no part 2.....great job bt sports......should have been released not long after the first part as there was genuine intrigue at the end

I can agree with Seth that he’s the best wrestler in the world

Man I am so hyped for Seth vs Riddle. The build benefited from. The summerslam snub imo.

Just an incredible interview.

Cornette said a lot of the best work he saw was between guys that didn't like each other but still respected each other. This seems to be a good example

I love how professional Seth was in this interview. He is what WWE is all about and I understand why he dislike riddle outside the ring.

KEEP THESE INTERVIEWS COMING WOW

Seth Rollins is the best part of WWE hands down. I really hope WWE has bigger plans for him because he is being sorely underused considering how talented this man is. My goat.

True wrestler’s wrestler, big fan of Seth franklin Rollins

I still think seth > roman. Roman is doing fine, finally. But it still doesn't click for me. Seth on the other hand, I am always excited to see him in action. Always.

Dope interview!

these intervies are gold

So many WWE fans didn't get the homage to that beautiful, beautiful trainwreck of a moment between DC and Jon Jones. Here I thought there'd be more crossover between pro-wrestling and MMA fans, given that so many athletes from either side have crossed over and back -- Lashley, Brock, Ronda, Riddle, Shayna, Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn, just to name a few. Oh and I'd also like to note the few MMA fans who've tried to integrate WWE-style promos and gimmicks, like Adesanya using Undertaker's entrance theme, Conor McGregor doing the Mr McMahon strut, and of course Colby Covington living the gimmick while using Kurt Angle's theme.

Your interviews are excellent.

Is part 2 exist?

I know seth dosent want to work with guy but he is still humble and carry his self accordingly he is generally one of a kind

Seth Rollins is Hall of Fame worthy

10:50 exactly.

Seth looks so ready for this matchup

12:48 Seth Rollins to CYN confirmed !!!!!

Great interview

Prime example of how to handle real heat and make money. Bad example: CM Punk

That thumbnail made them look like twins 🤣 😂

Seth's Interviews are always awesome

I love this, I feel thats WWE Superstardom again.

Rollins is a true professional

Ariel interview style is just unique and better that other peoples. He kind of shuts up and lets people talk. He becomes almost invisible and the quests personality shines through. Hes getting them over , not himself

They may not like each other but by God they can make a old school magic together

Nice Work-Shoot

2015 version of Seth Rollins was the best he was like Shawn in the 90's best performer and had great storyline as a heel.

Agree with Seth, he has been the best wrestler on the planet for some time now

Where's part 2??

when is part 2 ??

M Huge Fan Of Seth Rollins 😎

They seemed kinda friendly with eachother when they were on UUDD, I thought wrong then lol

This match is solid 👍👍👍

Seth Rollins is one of the most valuable assets in the business.

Where is part two of the interview?

Amazing match!

The legit heat with riddle stems from the fact that in a real fight matt would easily handle seth they both know it

part 2 next week but it's been 11 days 🤔

Where is part 2?? 👀

i think seth has established himself as a star, i think riddle is somewhat there. i like both of them as wrestling entertainers

Where is the part 2 bro 😑😑

I’m starting to think part two doesn’t exist

Rollins is ❤love ❤

Seth when he retires will have a mind for the bussiness like triple h or shawn or even paul heyman this interview shows his intelligence in the ring

Him coming out as the devil was a GOAT moment.

I could listen to them for days...lol

wheres the part 2

Where is part 2

Just watched Seth n Riddle play 2k22 on UUDD ... everything is a work 😆

Best in the world.

Ariel is so damn good at what he does

Seth is a legend. I hope his next run will be against Roman.

seth seems like a really good dude. interesting interview........huge caveat: I fully understand anything can be a *work* but still
