Corbin says he’s going to allow Rollins to vent, but Rollins cuts him off and says Corbin has no idea what to do with the talent on RAW. Rollins says a team like The Revival should be competing for the Tag Titles, but instead their fighting in a “lucha house match.” Rollins questions what a lucha house rules even is. Rollins talks about having four segments about urination with Drake Maverick, and sarcastically says that’s really “cutting edge.” Rollins continues to vent about the current state of RAW, and then says that their Universal Champion Brock Lesnar never shows up. Rollins says Brock hasn’t competed in a match on RAW since 2002.

Rollins seems fine with that, and Corbin heads to the back.

– Seth Rollins is backstage for an interview. Rollins is asked if he regrets calling our Baron Corbin. Rollins says maybe it’s not the smartest move to do a TLC match six days before his match against Ambrose, but if he wants to be a real champion and stick up for the guys and girls in the back, then he has to stand up to Corbin.
