His curb stomp might have been rebranded, and his wrestling name had a “freakin’” added in 2021, but Rollins’ persona and success have meant his popularity has remained sky-high throughout his two decades in the ring.
Whether you’re a wrestling expert or are just getting into the sport, let’s learn a bit more about Rollins…
How Much Is Seth Rollins Worth?
Seth Rollins’ net worth is around $12 million according to various estimates. Rollins’ annual salary from his wrestling endeavours is reportedly in the £2 million range, though this will vary on an annual basis.
Endorsements are also a considerable part of Rollins’ income, along with other business interests and investments.
It’s difficult to know precisely what anyone’s net worth is, and there is always an element of guesswork when it comes to predicting how much someone like Rollins has to his name.
While Rollins has not amassed riches from acting like Dwayne Johnson, he has forayed into the world of film over the last few years. Appearances in films are going to have added yet more wealth into Rollins’ coffers.
What Is Seth Rollins Real Name?
He might be known to millions as ‘Seth Freakin’ Rollins’, but Rollins’ real name is Colby Daniel Lopez.
Born in Iowa, Lopez is of Armenian, German and Irish descent, and adopted the Lopez surname from his Mexican-American stepfather.
He only found out about his brother and sister through a DNA test in 2019. Introverted and into rock music, Lopez began training as a wrestler during his teen years.
It was only in September 2010 that he debuted the Seth Rollins name. This came just a month after penning a developmental contract with the WWE.
Relationship With Becky Lynch
Rollins started dating Rebecca Quin (fellow wrestler Becky Lynch) in 2019. Their first daughter was born in December 2020, and they got married in June 2021. They currently live in Illinois.
Growing into a powerhouse wrestling couple, Lynch was hesitant about letting Rollins read her book, because she valued his opinion so highly.
Once Rollins had read through, he provided a blurb, signed by ‘The Man’s Man.”
“Effortlessly authentic, poignant without ever trying too hard, and a little rough around the edges - that's my lovely wife, and it's also her lovely book. I am so proud and so inspired.
“Between being a full-time WWE Superstar, a full-time mother, and a GOAT life partner, my one and only somehow casually found the bandwidth to pen a perfect memoir... because of course she did.”
Naturally, WWE tried to make the most of Rollins and Lynch as an on-screen pairing. It was not received particularly well by fans, though, and the couple didn’t especially enjoy working together.
Rollins said, “We tried to make the best of it, but I don’t think either of us were terribly comfortable with it. Even though we have incredible chemistry as people, as performers, our characters never really vibed on-screen.”
Seth Rollins Height
Seth Rollins stands at 1.85 metres tall. That makes him eight centimetres shorter than The Rock and six centimetres shorter than Roman Reigns.
While his weight has likely fluctuated throughout his wrestling career, Rollins apparently weighs 102 kilograms at the time of writing.
Seth Rollins Wrestlemania 40
Seth Rollins is headlining WrestleMania for the first time in 2024. WrestleMania 40 has been widely publicised for the return of The Rock, who will be going against Rollins as part of the Tag Team showpiece.
Looking ahead to the event, Rollins said, “It’s been a long journey to get here, but I’m right where I belong. It’s a very stressful time, but I’m enjoying it. I truly hope the audience is enjoying it as much as I am.”
Having narrowly avoided a serious knee injury, Rollins is relishing the prospect of taking centre stage.
“It was not as serious as it could have been,” said Rollins. “My biggest fear when I felt my knee go in the direction it wasn’t supposed to go was that it was going to be a repeat of 2015.
“I’d have had to vacate the title, miss WrestleMania, all the hard work from the past few years was going up in smoke, and I’d have to start all over. That wasn’t the case.
“I was able to continue to work on the injury, continue to tell stories and continue to build rivalries. I always looked at it from a glass half full situation.
“The fact that we missed out on a few Seth Rollins matches on Raw breaks my heart as much as it does yours, but in the grand scheme of things, it’s all working out in the way it was intended to. I’m happy at full strength and ready to go for not one but two nights of WrestleMania.”
Rollins, like fans worldwide, is well aware of the tantalising position WWE is in.
“We are living in one hell of a timeline. It’s crazy to think about all the people in WWE at the same time.
“The Rock is back, and all that’s happened with him and Cody Rhodes and Cody’s fans, it is incredible and I’m still making sense of it. Years from now we’ll look back on this; it’s going to create a moment that lasts forever.”
