The First Attempt: A Mismatch of WWE Characters and Mindsets
Rollins candidly admitted that their first on-screen collaboration, which took place four years ago, was not as successful as they had hoped. He attributed this to the fact that both their characters and their personal mindsets were in completely different places at the time.
Rollins confessed that he was grappling with self-doubt and depression, unsure of his identity both on and off the screen.
He was desperately trying to find something that would resonate with the audience and help him regain his footing.
On the other hand, Lynch’s character was soaring high. She was portrayed as “The Man,” a tough, no-nonsense character reminiscent of Stone Cold Steve Austin. However, she found it challenging to reconcile this strong, independent persona with her real-life role as a wife and love interest.

This can often lead to confusion among the audience, who may struggle to separate the characters from the real people behind them.
