Perhaps Jon Stewart has a career in the squared circle waiting for him when he retires form The Daily Show later this year as the talk show host mildly threatened top WWE Superstar Seth Rollins.

Stewart announced earlier this month that he will be stepping down as the host of the political comedy show later this year and Rollins called him out this week on Monday Night RAW.
Rollins said on the WWE's flagship show that Stewart was "unwatchable," and TMZ picked up on the story as Stewart responded to "Mr. Money in the Bank."

Rollins has been one of the top heels in the WWE since turning on Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose -- collectively known as The Shield -- in June and joining The Authority.
"Seth Rollins, you made a lot of mistakes in your life," Steward said. "Being a turncoat for your brothers on The Shield. Being a toady for The Authority, not being able to choose which color your hair should be, but this is the biggest mistake you ever made."
Stewart said that Rollins has messed with the wrong people by coming after The Daily Show.
"By coming after The Daily Show, you just stepped into a world of hurt my friend," Stewart said. "A world of hurt that even your buddies at J&J Security aren't gonna be able to save you from. I'm coming for you Rollins! And you're gonna see it, 160 pounds of dynamite."
Stewart joked: "Obviously, not dynamite I mean you know my bone density is not what it used to be. 160 pounds of wood...like a soft wood. Like a pine. Like a pine....Still, splinters, ya know? That's gonna hurt."
Stewart concluded that he's coming for Rollins.
"My point is, you messed with the wrong guy and I'm coming, Stewart said. "And that's money in the bank my friend. We out."
Rollins is set to be with the WWE as it presents Fastlane, the final stop on the road to WrestleMania 31, live this Sunday night from the FedEx Forum in Memphis.
Rollins hasn't been booked for a match yet, but he could be thrown into a bout when the show hits the airwaves at 8 p.m. ET on pay-per-view and the WWE Network.
Perhaps, Rollins and Stewart could settle their differences in the squared circle at Fastlane.
