Seth Rollins Net Worth $4 Million
Seth had a burning passion for wrestling since early childhood. He started taking part in small local events at the age of 14, without taking any professional training. When he was 16, he took the decision not to attend college but make his career in wrestling, and competed in many shows in backyard wrestling format. In 2005 he appeared in Scot County Wrestling (SCW) for the first time as GIXX. He also participated in Ian Rottens’ Independent Wrestling Association Mid South (IWA) tournaments, and defeated Sal Thomaselli. He eventually won the SCW championship and after sometime joined NWA Mid West where also he won many matches. In 2007 he joined Ring of Honor – this time as Tyler Black. He fought many matches and very soon became the Ring of Honor World Champion and also ROH World Tag Team Champion twice.
In 2010 Rollins made a big leap and signed a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment(WWE). Here he worked under the name Seth Rollins, and after winning many championships, such as FCW Heavy Weight Championship, FCW 15 Championship and FCW Florida Tag Team Championship in 2012, he appeared as a part of The Shield for the first time. He remained a part of it for almost 2 years and after many wins and controversies he switched to The Authority. On June 17, 2014, he entered in the Classic Money in the Bank Ladder Match and won that, which added yet more considerably to his net worth.
Apart from these he has also won several more matches and championships and retained his high rank in the WWE charts. On November 4, 2015 he incurred a major injury to his knee during a House Show match in Ireland, and had to undergo surgery, so he has needed to quit his passion and profession for quite a lengthy period.
Apart from the numerous championships, Rollins has also won loads of awards for his performances throughout his career. ‘Feud of the Year’ 2014, ‘Most Hated Wrestler of the Year’ 2015, ‘Tag Team of the Year’ 2013, ‘Wrestler of the Year’ 2015, ‘Survival of the Fittest’ 2009 and the prestigious ‘Slammy Awards’ 10 times, are few of the long list.
Seth is also known for his spectacular finishing and signature moves which include Avada Kedavra, Sky Walker, God’s Last Gift, Phoenix Splash and Suicide Dive. He has used the entrance themes like The Haunted, Flesh it Out, Special Op and The Second Coming for his matches.
In his personal life, Seth is known to have dated Zahra Schreiber, also a wrestler, as was engaged to Leighla Schultz, but is still single. At present he lives in Devonport, Iowa and is recovering from his injury.
