Seth Rollins’ Path Back to Raw: Explored Strategies for His Next Move
WWE
Seth Rollins hasn’t appeared on WWE TV since unsuccessfully challenging for Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam.
The former champion recently made his return on the house show circuit, competing in several matches during the company’s South America Live Tour earlier this month.
While this fueled speculation about Rollins’ Raw return, the popular star has yet to show up on Monday nights since his loss at the August 1-2 premium live event.
With Seth Rollins recently noting on ESPN Chicago that he has been “focusing on other things” and will come back “when the time is right,” there has been even more speculation about what’s next for the multi-time champion in WWE.
Here are three potential avenues for Seth Rollins following his eventual return.
LA Knight alliance ahead of Money in the Bank
Seth Rollins’ recent house show return saw him team with Solo Sikoa and LA Knight against The Bloodline at non-televised events across Ecuador, Colombia, Argentina and Chile on September 9, 10, 11 and 12 respectively.
With Knight set to challenge for Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank, we could see Seth Rollins return to interfere in this match on October 10.
Given their collaboration on the live event circuit, the former World Heavyweight Champion might align himself with LA Knight. Following the Bloodline’s dissolution indicated by Rollins and Reigns’ mutual respect shown after SummerSlam, Rollins returning to support another star could propel the former titleholder toward his next objective on Raw.
Royce Keys feud
Royce Keys made his WWE Raw return on the August 24 episode, attacking The Usos, LA Knight and Solo Sikoa alongside OtM.
Now known as the 946, Keys, Lucien Price and Bronco Nima have run roughshod over the Red Brand, establishing themselves as a dominant force.
Seeking distraction from the World Heavyweight Title picture, the 1-0 Grand Slam winner may find a fight with Keys, Price, and Nima.
A series of conflicts featuring Seth Rollins could elevate the veteran, who recently earned massive praise backstage.
Roman Reigns alliance ahead of Survivor Series WarGames
Imagine Roman Reigns, The Usos and Jacob Fatu being dismantled by the 946 and others hostile to The Bloodline.
Then—BURN IT DOWN! Seth Rollins sprints to the ring and makes the save, clearing attackers along with Roman Reigns. Rollins and Reigns shake hands, setting the stage for an epic encounter.
Consequently, following their summer reconciliation, it would make logical sense to see Rollins and Reigns stand side by side once again.
With Reigns slated for Survivor Series, Seth Rollins could step forward as a WarGames ally, ensuring The Undertaker’s theme plays and avoiding mockery.
