WWE Superstar Seth Rollins Has Something To Say To Autograph Hounds

And it is simply: quit it.

WWE Superstars are on the road constantly, up to 300 days a year. It is a brutal schedule both mentally and physically, and many have promotional appearances throughout the week and weekends around events where they are more than happy to pose for a picture or sign an autograph. For some people, that is not enough. WWE Superstar Seth Rollins took to Twitter today to address those people directly:

c'mon guys
c'mon folks

There is a whole network of people that do this with all types of celebrities, some even attempt to make a living off of it. Movie and television stars, athletes, politicians, you name it. The average joe that runs into someone and asks for a picture or a autograph in a polite manner and at the appropriate time they do not have a problem with; and from most accounts, the vast majority always make time for kids. The problem is the people Rollins is talking about. They show up to places like the airport, where people are eating, or even in the middle of people working out. They usually bring multiple items to get a signature on, more than likely for resale, and they have also been known to follow and chase after people if they refuse to sign or take a picture as well. To me, he is right when he refers to it as a form of stalking.

Now, there will be people who will say "Well, they are in the public eye. They asked for it." or "It is just an autograph or picture, it takes two seconds what is the big deal?". I can understand that point of view, even if I do not agree with it. I know if someone walked up to me mid-bite at a restaurant and asked for my autograph (would never happen) it would make me mad. Celebrities are like everyone else: we all deserve a moment of privacy. My advice would be not to ask Mr. Rollins for a quick pic at baggage claim if I were you.
