I had him ranked at #1 but bumped him down 2 levels for everyone he injured with buckle bombs.

In all seriousness, Rollins is a guy for whom the last couple years have not been kind. I have lost more and more interest in his character the further into his interminable face run he gets. I'm just not that interested in the character Rollins has become. I'm also not a big fan of the Shield in general. I don't really have the motivation to even explain why. It's funny; when he was champion, I always felt alone in enjoying his run. Since then, it seems that absence has made the heart grow fonder. I look at his "open" challenge match with Neville as proof of just how great Rollins was in his golden era. But after he returned from injury, I really lost interest in the character. He was performing the same sort of schlocky promo as Roman Reigns did, but he had goodwill thanks to his title reign and his absence. Still, I saw most if not all of 2017 as an interminably dull run for his character. Jason Jordan was, to me, more interesting than Rollins.

Now that Rollins is back to be a clinician in the ring, I'm hoping WWE takes up the slack in the promos they forcefeed him. I still don't have interest in his story arc, but I'm having fun watching his matches for the first time since his championship run.

And his laugh is the best.
