Aaron Rodgers Was Not a Fan of the 'Game of Thrones' Finale Despite His Season 8 Cameo [SPOILERS]

This story includes spoilers for 'Game of Thrones' Season 8.

The finale of Game of Thrones has brought on a flurry of discussion from everyday fans and celebrities alike, who attempted to sort through their complicated feelings on the series’ conclusion. While some have expressed their support for the ending, others haven’t received it so warmly--and one such opinion came from Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who said he was not a fan of the final episode.

Rodgers, who made a cameo appearance in the penultimate episode, “The Bells,” said he was frustrated to see Bran Stark take the throne in the finale, according to USA Today. In particular, he was irritated by Tyrion’s declaration that Bran is the character with the best story of all the possible candidates.

“I love the show, and it was a great 10 years, but no,” Rodgers said. "You come down to the end and Tyrion says the person with the best story is Bran, who, by the way, said he wasn't Bran Stark anymore.”

Rodgers went on to list a number of other characters with better stories: “Jon had a better story. Dany had a better story. Arya had a better story. Sansa had a better story. Tyrion had a better story. Varys had a better story. Bronn? Lot better story.”

Rodgers also debunked a number of theories about his cameo appearance. According to USA Today, he denied that his role was as either an anonymous archer or a victim of Daenerys’ massacre, as some had predicted. “If you watch that person run,” he joked, referring to the victim of the massacre, who attempted to run from a burst of fire, “they’re a total non-athlete.”

Rodgers’ criticism of the ending adds to the growing torrent of frustration from many, particularly with Bran taking the crown--though Isaac Hempstead Wright, who plays Bran, has offered his own take on the fan response. We’re still not sure how to feel about it--on the one hand, we don’t want to buy into the idea of someone “earning” the throne, but on the other hand, we don’t buy into Tyrion’s reasoning, either.
