He’s a stage five clinger. Just holding on because he can’t move on with his life. Me, I’ve just created so much; a beautiful empire. We’ve pretty much everything, and that’s what they do. They all come back. But yeah, he’s just holding on, man.
The comments follow Rollins’ alliance with Cody Rhodes at Royal Rumble 2025, where the duo confronted Reigns. Their recent interaction reignited the tension between the former Shield members, setting up potential confrontations heading into WrestleMania 41.
