AEW Star Marko Stunt is the latest wrestler to be teased by Seth Rollins as his potential opponent for WrestleMania 38. The Visionary has been tweeting GIFs and images of superstars he could face at The Show of Shows.
Prior to RAW this week, Vince McMahon confirmed that The Drip God will get “his own main event” this weekend. However, the WWE Chairman did not reveal the name of the opponent, stating that Rollins will know his opponent when he is in the ring.
Since then, the former NXT Champion has teased the likes of Veer Mahaan, Shane McMahon, Mustafa Ali, John Cena, WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam, and Scott Steiner as his potential opponents this Saturday. However, Rollins' "vision" wasn't limited to Vince McMahon's promotion as he posted a GIF of Marko Stunt on Twitter.
