TLDR

Seth Rollins discussed the differences between modern wrestling and past eras during an appearance on Strong Talk with Men's Health, stating that today's wrestlers have safer working conditions and lighter schedules but face much higher performance expectations. Rollins explained that while everything is "safer, cleaner" and "more showbiz and less like rodeo" now, modern wrestlers must deliver "100 out of 100 every time" compared to past eras when fans believed wrestling was real fighting, giving performers more leeway.
