How Social Media Almost Destroyed Seth Rollins And Becky Lynch’s Relationship
Speaking on the Something’s Burning podcast, Seth Rollins revealed that negative comments and constant online analysis affected his mental health and personal life.
He admitted that the pressure to respond or engage online was deeply damaging to him and his relationship with Lynch.
Therefore, he decided to quit platforms like Twitter and avoid Instagram comments altogether to regain control and focus on his real-life relationship with Becky Lynch.
“You do a thing, and then you get an immediate response right away because it’s live. But now you have this social media effect where… everybody analyzes it and picks it apart… whatever gets traction is going to be usually negative or a hot take, and that gets amplified. And you start to trick yourself into thinking, well, that’s the reality — that’s the reality that I live in.”
“It was affecting my relationship. That was a really close call… It started to affect my decisions in my relationship and the way I was interacting with her, and it was really messing everything up. I had to take a moment of full collapse to come back and be like, What am I doing?”
“The fact that everybody feels they need to have a f***** opinion about everything — that’s the thing where I go, ‘What are we doing here?’ No, you don’t need to have an opinion… Nobody gives a s*** about you and your opinion, you know. You don’t control wrestling.”*
“These opinion junkies, we’ve given them a little bit of liberty by saying, If you have a strong enough opinion and it takes hold enough, we will change course. And that happens from time to time.”
