Travis Scott has been a regular celebrity guest on WWE, but his appearance on March 1 at Elimination Chamber was unforgettable (and unforgivable). This time, the rapper didn’t just make an appearance—he got physically involved, delivering hard blows to the Undisputed Champion, Cody Rhodes.
Reportedly, Scott’s brutal slaps left the American Nightmare with a busted eardrum and a black eye. Since the event, he has faced criticism from several WWE superstars, and recently, Seth Rollins also shared his thoughts about it.
Seth Rollins Says He Has Mercy on Travis Scott
With his involvement in John Cena’s shocking heel turn, Scott became a part of one of the most talked-about moments in wrestling history. However, his actions also sparked controversy, with many superstars heavily criticizing what he did at the WWE premium event.
Speaking with Brandon Tierney and Sal Licata on WFAN, Seth Rollins was asked how he would have reacted if Scott had slapped him instead of Rhodes. In a humorous tone, here’s what Rollins said:
“I mean look, I have mercy on Travis Scott. That is not a man that needs to be in a wrestling ring with these giant humans. No offense to him, but he’s a cruiserweight, brother.
You know what I mean? He can wrestle Rey Mysterio, maybe, but he doesn’t know what he’s doing in there. He just whacked him in the side of the head, gave him a big old bruise, busted him open. Just awful. But if Cody gets his hands on him, it’s done and dusted.”
“Cody’s not like Braun Strowman, he’s not Andre The Giant. He’s not a massive guy. But he dwarfs Travis Scott. So, if he can get through Travis’ team of people, it’s game over for him. Cody’s a very nice guy, I won’t speak on behalf. But he’s got an undercurrent of frustration in there, especially when he gets taken advantage of in a situation like that, absolutely.”
Scott has already been making headlines for getting his hands dirty against The American Nightmare. And if the rumors are true, we may soon see the famous singer step into the ring again. It will be interesting to see who stands against him if he decides to make his in-ring debut.
