Eddie Vedder joins Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch in Bears suite for win over Seahawks

Eddie Vedder, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch were together at Lumen Field as the Chicago Bears defeated the Seattle Seahawks 34-17 on Monday Night Football.

The Story

Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder appeared alongside WWE stars Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch in a Bears suite during Chicago’s Monday Night Football game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field.

Lynch confirmed they were seated in the same suite as Vedder when she posted a photo with Rollins, captioned “The Man” and writing: “Some nights are magic. Go [Bears]!” In a separate pre-game hype video, Rollins said, “We are here in Seattle, but we are Bears fans, Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch. We’re gonna smash them Seahawks tonight on Monday Night Football. Go Bears!”

Vedder, who was born in Evanston, Illinois, is a fan of the Bears, the Cubs and the Bulls, and he made the trip to Seattle to watch the Bears take on the defending Super Bowl champions Seahawks. Rollins is described in the supplied material as a diehard Bears fan and an NFL analyst, while Lynch is a fan because of him, and Rollins was on a break from WWE at the time.

On the field, the Bears led 13-9 going into halftime and took control in the third quarter after a 10-play, 69-yard drive that consumed over six minutes and gave Chicago an 11-point lead heading into the fourth. Seattle’s Jason Myers missed a field goal, and the Bears fumbled it back to Seattle; after Sam Darnold threw a touchdown to close the score to 20-17, an interception and D’Andre Swift touchdowns—Swift finished with three—helped push the game to a 34-17 Bears win.
