WWE superstar and Bears superfan Seth Rollins has wild prediction for Sunday vs. Commanders

The WWE star has an absurd prediction for Sunday’s game between the Bears and Commanders.

WWE superstar Seth Rollins is a huge Chicago Bears fan. Rollins often shows his emotions on X after every Chicago game, win or lose, by simply saying, “I love football” or “I hate football,” depending on the game’s result.

This week, the 4-2 Bears play a crucial road game against the NFC-leading Washington Commanders (5-2).

Rollins joined “Inside the NFL” on CW this week to make his pick for Sunday’s game. It was as ridiculous as you might have imagined, but remember, Rollins is a Chicago fan.

“Somebody said I need help making a pick on a Bears game,” Rollins asked Ryan Clark and Chad Johnson. “You know how I’m feeling. You know how I’m feeling.”

Pressed for a reduction, Rollins didn’t hesitate.

“Is (Washington QB Jayden) Daniels even going to play in this game?” he asked. “Are we going to get Marcus Mariota? Who, in all fairness, lit it up last week coming in. But this is the Bears, baby; we are on fire.”

The prediction:

“Bears are going to win this game, 80-0,” he said. “Eighty-to-nothing, man.”

Perhaps Rollins knows his Chicago/Washington history. In the 1940 NFL Championship game, the Bears defeated the then-Redskins, 73-0.

Regardless of whether Jayden Daniels or Marcus Mariota plays for the Commanders, 80-0 seems like a bit of a stretch.

Angel Reese and Marlon Humphrey had the best sideline exchange at a Ravens game with Seth Rollins watching

An Angel Reese and Seth Rollins crossover was not on the bingo card.

Angel Reese‘s offseason tour continues with a trip to her hometown, Baltimore, to see the Ravens take on the Bills.

Angel’s been living her best life as she heals from a season-ending injury. She recently attended a Rams game earlier this month and even found some time to attend an Usher concert. So, it makes sense that she continues doing the things that make her happy, like going home to Baltimore.

While in town Sunday, she was honored at a Ravens game, and cameras captured the moment cornerback Marlon Humphrey shook Angel’s hand pregame. Of course, the internet saw the clip capturing the exchange, and lip-readers think he told Angel, “I watch women’s basketball because of you.”

But that wasn’t the only thing people noticed. Wizards guard Bub Carrington and *checks notes* WWE wrestler Seth Rollins were also on the field as Marlon and Angel met.

Fans could not get over the wild crossover and had a field day. Here’s what they’re saying about the whole sequence (Warning: NSFW language):

T.Y. Hilton tossed obnoxious Bears fan Seth Rollins over a barricade during a Colts game

Rollins heeled it up, letting Hilton soak up some babyface cheers.

T.Y. Hilton doesn’t need to do anything to endear himself to Indianapolis Colts fans. The former wideout had 53 touchdowns and nearly 10,000 receiving yards with the franchise.

Seth Rollins doesn’t need to do anything to encourage boos. The five-time WWE champion has built a name on weaselly tactics, outlandish outfits and his generally obnoxious demeanor to become a modern legend in the pro wrestling ring.

Sometimes, these two forces meet to combine for something beautiful. Like when unabashed Chicago Bears fan Rollins shows up in a suite at Lucas Oil Stadium, right about the same time a hooded Hilton shows up to forcefully eject him from the premises.

Rollins showcased the selling ability that makes him a future Hall of Famer after hitting the turf and being shown to the exit by security. Hilton reveled in the cheers of the home crowd. And, ultimately, Rollins had to deal with the sting of a 21-16 Chicago loss on top of everything else.

At least he had good seats. For a while.

Colts’ great T.Y. Hilton dumps WWE Superstar Seth Rollins on field

WWE Superstar Seth Rollins had some fun at the Colts-Bears game

Seth Rollins of WWE thought he pulled the ultimate heel move during the Chicago Bears’ game on Sunday with the Indianapolis Colts.

He tore off his Anthony Richardson jersey to reveal a Caleb Williams jersey underneath it.

Former great Colts wideout T.Y. Hilton was having none of it and dropped Rollins onto the field.

Every No. 1 WWE Draft pick through the years

Who deserved to go No. 1? Who was a surprise when they were picked? We go back through the entire history of WWE Draft top picks.

Is it an honor to get drafted, whether it’s in traditional sports or WWE? Sure. But there’s something to be said for being the No. 1 pick.

The WWE Draft is, of course, not the same thing as a pro sports draft, in the sense that it’s done all for entertainment value. It’s not GMs or authority figures sitting around and selecting the best available wrestler, as much fun as that would be.

Still, most years the WWE Draft has been around, the No. 1 overall pick has been a big name, someone you would actually build a wrestling brand around. And even the years when it wasn’t, it’s fun to look back and say, “Wow, really?”

So let’s do that now. Scroll down for a look at every WWE Draft No. 1 pick in history, from the initial WWF draft lottery in 2002 up through the most recent edition.

WrestleMania 40 Night 2 reactions: Cody Rhodes finally finishes his story

Rob Wolkenbrod offers up his breakdown of Night 2 of WrestleMania 40 from Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, PA. — Night 2 was poised to be the climax of WrestleMania weekend for WWE, marking the culmination of numerous storylines. However, the focus leading into the weekend was squarely on one man, Cody Rhodes. The question loomed large: Would he finally achieve his long-awaited goal of finishing his story? As WrestleMania Sunday began, all eyes focused on Rhodes as he prepared to potentially etch his name in wrestling history.

With Bloodline Rules in play, along with Roman Reigns‘ dominance atop WWE for three years, it clouded whether WrestleMania 40 would culminate Rhodes’ journey to the top. But it happened anyway as the American Nightmare ended a modern-day record title run to begin his own, featuring surprise help from Seth Rollins, John Cena and The Undertaker to counter The Bloodline.

Night 2 featured surprises, once-in-a-lifetime moments, and some fun in-ring work, as analyzed by our own Rob Wolkenbrod in a special breakdown of WrestleMania 40’s second night.

Rollins and Drew McIntyre opened WrestleMania with eclectic entrances and a dramatic, hard-hitting match for the World Heavyweight Championship. While the Scottish Warrior seemingly secured his long-awaited WrestleMania moment in front of an audience, Damian Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to spoil the celebrations, courtesy of CM Punk laying the foundation for this moment to happen.

AJ Styles might have won the battle by flying around the world to cost him a World Heavyweight Championship match at WrestleMania, but LA Knight won the war on Sunday night. It opens an avenue for the Megastar to return to the cusp of the main event scene and potentially become a Money in the Bank favorite this summer.

Meanwhile, after years of waiting, Bayley finally had her WrestleMania moment by defeating IYO SKY in a fun back-and-forth match for the WWE Women’s Championship. Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks all received their spotlight once upon a time on the Grandest Stage of Them All, so it was only appropriate for Bayley to become immortalized as well.

WWE Money in the Bank winners — Every briefcase winner and how they fared when cashing in

Check out the complete history of WWE Money in the Bank winners, including every briefcase winner and how they fared when cashing in.

Originally the brainchild of Chris Jericho, the Money in the Bank Ladder Match has gone from being an entertaining gimmick match to one of the most anticipated subplots of any WWE calendar year. It’s changed and expanded to multiple brands and the women’s division, and become the focus of its own event, joining the likes of WrestleMania, Royal Rumble and SummerSlam as one of the most important that WWE puts on.

At its core, however, is a simple and compelling idea: Whoever outfights and outwits a group of hungry competitors and grabs the namesake briefcase has a guaranteed title shot they can use any time, any place, for one year. It’s the WWE’s equivalent of a golden ticket, and the anticipation for when a briefcase might get cashed in has become drama in its own right.

As Money in the Bank has risen in prominence, its history has grown as well. Let’s take a look at a complete history of WWE Money in the Bank winners, including how the winners fared when they eventually cashed in their contracts.

WrestleMania 40 results: Drew McIntyre wins, then loses World title

Drew McIntyre got the moment he wanted at WrestleMania 40 against Seth Rollins … but it was fleeting.

A host of bagpipers play Drew McIntyre to the ring, and he looks ready to go while Michael Cole reminds viewers that he was the man who injured special guest commentator CM Punk. Seth Rollins has a Philadelphia Mummers Day band play his theme, which is pretty cool, though the Scottish Warrior looks unamused.

McIntyre hits an immediate Claymore when the bell rings, covers and darn near wins it. Rollins rolls out to the floor, but McIntyre pursues him and throws him into the barricade. Drew takes some time to jump on social media (we presume) for a second thanks to someone’s phone at ringside before he continues to press his assault. Rollins is able to hit a Pedigree on the floor, then follows up with a stomp for a near fall in the ring.

Maybe McIntyre shouldn’t have stopped to jaw with Punk. But he gets back in the saddle with a back drop, hitting Seth where he’s taped up after his Night 1 match. They trade blows until McIntyre hits the Glasgow Kiss, then a backbreaker.

A kip up has McIntyre back on his feet, but Rollins counters his Claymore attempt with another Pedigree/Stomp combo. Drew is able to kick out again at two. A series of counters leads to the Future Shock DDT, with Rollins barely able to kick out at two.

The fans start a “this is awesome” chant as McIntyre plots his next move. Drew mocks Punk by making the go to sleep motion, but Rollins is able to counter with a roll-up for a near fall. McIntyre comes right back with a Claymore, yet somehow Rollins kicks out.

Punk mocks McIntyre for clearing off the announce table. Rollins is hoisted up but wriggles free, and the Spanish announce table, giving Seth a running start for a Stomp on the English table. Rollins is selling damage to his knee, though he still kicks out after McIntyre nails yet another Claymore.

Now seething, McIntyre nonetheless focuses in the corner, and he connects on the Claymore again to win his first world championship in front of fans. On his way out of the ring, Rollins appears to say “you f–king deserve it” to McIntyre.

McIntyre makes his way over to the announce table to talk to Punk, who claims he can’t hear him with his headphones on. Punk finally has enough and takes his arm brace off, smashing McIntyre with it.

As if on cue, Damian Priest sprints down, hits McIntyre in the head with his MITB briefcase and tells the ref he’s cashing in. Priest hits the South of Heaven and gets the pin, winning the title as McIntyre is in misery and Punk laughs.
