Known for his love-hate relationship with the Chicago Bears, Rollins recently faced a wave of online trolling after the team’s crushing defeat against the Kansas City Chiefs. However, his wife, fellow WWE superstar Becky Lynch, quickly came to his defense, asking for respect and privacy during a difficult time for her husband.

Seth Rollins Faces Online Backlash
Following the Bears’ disappointing loss, Rollins expressed his frustration on social media. He tweeted a simple yet emotional message: “I hate football.” This statement quickly went viral, attracting thousands of comments, many of which were harsh and mocking. The backlash grew when WWE on Fox’s Instagram account posted a screenshot of Rollins’ tweet with the caption, “Someone hug @WWERollins!”
While the internet buzzed with trolls poking fun at Rollins’ disillusionment, Becky Lynch stepped in to shield her husband from the barrage of negativity. Lynch commented on the Instagram post, “He is not accepting hugs at this difficult time,” followed by, “Please respect his privacy.” These words not only served to protect Rollins but also demonstrated the unity and strength of the WWE’s power couple.
Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins: A WWE Power Couple
Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins have been a dynamic duo within WWE since they began dating in 2019. The couple’s relationship has been both professional and personal, culminating in their marriage in June 2021, after welcoming their daughter in December 2020.

Seth Rollins’ Love-Hate Relationship with the Chicago Bears
This isn’t the first time Rollins has publicly criticized football, particularly when it involves the Chicago Bears. Last season, after the Bears lost to the Green Bay Packers, Rollins expressed his frustration by tweeting, “Bears stink. Refs stink. I hate football.” His passion for the Bears, despite their frequent defeats, is a rollercoaster of emotions, as each season seems to bring more disappointment.
In the Week 3 game held at Arrowhead Stadium, home to the Kansas City Chiefs, the Bears suffered a devastating 41-10 defeat. This loss left the Bears with three losses and zero wins, while the Chiefs moved to two wins and one loss. Rollins’ ongoing rivalry with Shinsuke Nakamura might involve back pain, but his loyalty to the Bears seems to be causing more stress than his wrestling feuds.
As the internet swarms with trolls and critics, Becky Lynch’s defense of Seth Rollins serves as a reminder of the power of support and loyalty in a world that often thrives on negativity. Her call for privacy and respect is a rallying cry for everyone to remember that behind the public personas are real people with real emotions.
