Who stands to lose the most due to Seth Rollins' Injury?
What does WWE have in store for Ambrose?Roman Reigns is going to benefit from Seth Rollins injury when he goes to Atlanta and claims the WWE World Title at Survivor Series. These things happen in this business, whether it is a short-term incident like John Cena’s triceps injury in 2013, or the neck injury that forced Edge to prematurely retire at the height of his career. There will be another day for Rollins – who did everything the company asked of him and then some for the past seven months, toting the world title around like it was his personal reason for being in the ring. Rollins proved that, given time, he could be as good as Shawn Michaels or a Chris Jericho, or believe it or not, CM Punk.Now, the company is fumbling, bumbling and stumbling toward with one goal in mind – survive (no pun intended) until the first of the year when the Royal Rumble becomes the focal point of the company’s quest for success. This will undoubtedly take some of the pressure and guaranteed heat off Reigns and allow fans to get behind a potential blockbuster match. Yes, I know it has to be booked right. No word yet on who I think that might be.With all Reigns stands to gain from the match in two weeks – most presume it will be against Dean Ambrose with a heel turn by the best friend and confidant, there are a few wrestlers who stand to lose from the recent events. Planning is everything. Injuries are unavoidable and tension continues to grow each day there is suspicion the fans will be forced to root for the new face of this company – where Kevlar rules because Vince McMahon said so.If you were wondering, these wrestlers might have been hurt the most by the recent events involving Rollins and the company’s apparent plan to stick with Reigns winning WWE gold.
#1 Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens
According to F4Wnoline.com, there was an original plan for these two to meet at Survivor Series with the Intercontinental Title on the line. It may have been the best match of the night and fans won’t have an opportunity to see it play out.
There is a chance they will meet in the semifinals of the title tournament. Will this lead to a feud heading into the Royal Rumble, who knows.
The move to change directions could also mean that if Ambrose is not the pick to face Reigns, Owens is a logical choice and could be a very good program for both men. Owens tends to raise his game in situations like this – and much like Bray Wyatt before him would get as much out of Reigns as possible.
Ambrose’s position here is tricky because we really do not know what he will do once he gets to Atlanta. If he faces Reigns, will there be a clean win. And if not, will The Authority be involved?
