As Good Morning Football approaches the NFL Draft, the NFL Network’s morning program is welcoming a visionary guest: Seth Freakin’ Rollins. The WWE superstar is set to guest co-host three episodes of Good Morning Football from Monday to Wednesday next week, as reported by Front Office Sports’ Ryan Glasspiegel. A diehard Chicago Bears fan, Rollins has previously made in-studio appearances to promote WWE-related projects.
“I love hearing myself talk and I love football,” Rollins shared with Glasspiegel. “It’s something that I’ve always kind of been interested in, especially in the past few years. I’ve gone down to the Super Bowl and done Radio Row. I found myself guest spots on all these shows kind of talking about football, talking about the Chicago Bears. I’ve really enjoyed it; I’ve enjoyed meeting the people and the process.”

Rollins also expressed that he has formed a friendship with GMFB star Kyle Brandt, who shares his passion for the Bears and WWE. “Kyle and I probably admired each other from afar for a while, and then the opportunity came up to go on Good Morning Football, talk football, and promote [WWE]. We managed to meet, hang out, and discuss both wrestling and the Bears. He brings the energy that WWE embodies, which helped my comfortability on the show,” Rollins explained.
For over a decade, Seth Rollins has been one of WWE’s biggest stars, but co-hosting the NFL Network’s flagship show for three consecutive days will mark a significant exposure for him. This comes at a busy time in both the NFL and WWE calendars, with WrestleMania 41, where Rollins is expected to face Roman Reigns and CM Punk in a triple threat match, scheduled for April 19-20 in Las Vegas.
