However, Rollins admits it’s difficult for him to write it on a piece of paper and memorize the lengthy promos; but he said that instead of on a paper it’s written in his head.
“I would say almost 0% scripted in the sense that I don’t write things down on a piece of paper, and read them and memorize them that way. That doesn’t really work for me. Scripted in the sense that I have a pretty good idea of what I want to say when I go out to the ring and grab the microphone, but like I said, it’s not written down.”

“It’s almost written in my head on a little tablet in my head. There’s no piece of paper for me, I can’t do that. I’ve tried it. It just doesn’t fly for me. I cannot be authentic in that way.” Rollins admitted.
Rollins concluded by saying he does not get any cues or a piece of paper for his promos.
