Not having Twitter chops is what got folks soured on Rollins as a babyface. Damn near literally.

It takes a real skill to be Twitter fingers and remain likeable. Big E for instance is masterful at it, Stokely/Malcom Bivens has it. shyt Hurricane Helms has his moments even

Seth just doesn’t have that skillset. Social media is real life to a LOT of the wwe fanbase so you gotta play that shyt smart if you’re the “face of the company”

so instead of playing to his strengths which is delivering in the ring when it counts. ..

he’s trying to cover for his deficiencies verbally/wit wise which is always a mistake.

Jeff Hardy for instance has never cut a money promo in his career and yet the crowd has never turned on him and Lord knows he’s given them plenty of reasons to from his behavior.

His promo after he turned heel and became champ in TNA is the best one that I can remember.

Bray Wyatt's Twitter account is great right now as well. He may not be great in the ring but there's not a better character than him in wrestling right now.

Yup that's why stand-up comedians and some singers are usually the best at social media. They're used to making off the cuff remarks and having a live mic.

You'd think the majority of wrestlers would be good at social media but I wonder if WWE scripting everything has made some WWE wrestlers bad at it.

I think some just suck at it because look at Sasha's twitter clapbacks versus her in ring promos, the in ring stuff is scripted while her social media stuff is all her own words. I think wrestlers with legit personality are much better at twitter because they can just be themselves.
