Seth Rollins is taking direct shots at Tom Brady and daring the NFL legend to show up at WrestleMania 42, making it clear he doesn’t believe Brady has the nerve to back up his comments about WWE.
During an appearance on UnSportsmanLike, Rollins reacted to Brady previously calling WWE wrestling “cute” while comparing it to other sports. That comment didn’t sit well with Rollins, who questioned whether Brady would ever step into WWE territory — especially on its biggest stage.
After bringing up Brady’s remarks, Rollins didn’t hold back while calling him out and predicting exactly how he thinks the situation would play out.
“I don’t think Tom Brady has the guts,” Rollins said. “I don’t think he has the guts to show up and do anything at WrestleMania. He called WWE wrestling cute, as he was comparing it to other athletes. He said this to Logan Paul in one of his interviews. He’s not gonna show up and do anything about it. He’s gonna chirp from afar, and then he’s gonna go play flag football, and he’s gonna put on a suit and he’s gonna get in the broadcast booth and he’s gonna be great at it.”
When asked if he would personally face Brady in the ring, Rollins made it clear he wouldn’t hesitate — and he sounded confident about how that matchup would go if it ever happened.
“I would guarantee that I would wrestle Tom Brady,” Rollins said. “Tom Brady would not stand a chance against me. Tom, all the respect in the world, Hall of Fame quarterback, first ballot, we think, who knows anymore. Multi-time Super Bowl Champion, MVP, all the accolades. He really came on strong in his second season as a broadcaster. Love listening to him. Brother, you’re not getting in the ring at WrestleMania. He doesn’t have the guts. He doesn’t have the guts. It’s not as cute as you think. That’s all I’m saying.”
Rollins isn’t the only WWE name speaking up about Brady’s take on wrestling. Several top stars have already reacted to his comments, including CM Punk, Paul Heyman, Drew McIntyre, Oba Femi, Randy Orton, and Liv Morgan, turning Brady’s remarks into a talking point across the company.
There’s also real intrigue behind the scenes because Brady has ties to the exact venue hosting WWE’s biggest show of the year. As a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, Brady is connected to Allegiant Stadium — the same stadium set to host WrestleMania 42 on April 18 and 19 in Las Vegas.
Reports have also suggested that WWE and Brady have been in discussions about a possible appearance at WrestleMania 42, although nothing has been finalized yet. That makes Rollins’ comments feel less like trash talk and more like a public challenge thrown straight at one of football’s biggest names.
With WrestleMania 42 getting closer and more WWE stars speaking out, the pressure is building around whether Brady will respond — or show up — when the spotlight is at its brightest.
