Here's what he said about winning the belt in an appearance on WWE's The Bump:
"Nearly four years since I’ve held a world heavyweight championship... It’s been a transformative four years. I’m a completely different person than I was the last time I held a world heavyweight championship. So this time, it really does feel right. I’m excited to bring a world title back to Raw, a show that has sorely missed a world champion in quite some time, and I plan on defending that title, being present, being the man on Monday nights like I have been, but this time with a title on my shoulder," Rollins said.

Rollins is RAW's top champion at the moment and delivers every week regarding in-ring competition. Now that CM Punk is back in WWE, many fans hope to see these two veterans go at it for the World Heavyweight Title somewhere down the line.
