Top RAW heel comes out of character to praise Seth Rollins' work ethic; claims he's one of WWE's biggest stars
WWE Superstar Seth Rollins will be making the trip to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for the Crown Jewel Premium Live Event this year. He is scheduled to face "Big" Bronson Reed in a singles match at the event.
Reed was out to make a name for himself on the fallout episode of RAW after SummerSlam 2024 as he launched a brutal attack on Seth. The Australian star hit six devastating Tsunamis on the former World Heavyweight Champion, leaving him helpless. This attack put Rollins on the shelf for several weeks but once he returned, the two stars reignited their rivalry. They are now scheduled to collide at Crown Jewel 2024 in a singles match.
During an exclusive interview with India Today, Bronson mentioned that Seth was one of the biggest names in the company for the last decade. He felt it was a huge moment to go one-on-one with The Visionary. Reed made it clear that he wanted to come out victorious at Crown Jewel 2024 and move up the ladder on the RAW roster.
"It’s special for me because Seth is one of WWE’s biggest superstars. He’s got to be in the top two or three in WWE, especially over the past decade. Getting to face him and test my strengths against him is a big deal. Hopefully, after Crown Jewel, people will start seeing me in that same light. I want to propel myself into the main event scene, so I have to go after guys like Seth Rollins," Bronson Reed said. [H/T India Today]
WWE Superstar Seth Rollins also has building tensions with CM Punk
Last year when CM Punk returned to WWE at the Survivor Series: WarGames Premium Live Event, Seth Rollins was the first to express his frustration. The Visionary called out the Best in the World backstage politicking and claimed he was a threat to the locker room.
Their rivalry was put on hold after Punk suffered a torn tricep in the 2024 Men's Royal Rumble Match and started a feud with Drew McIntyre. However, on the fallout episode of RAW after Bad Blood 2024, Punk and Rollins came face-to-face. The Best in the World stated that he needed to take some time off after the grueling Hell in a Cell Match with The Scottish Warrior.
Later, Seth got on the microphone and hoped that Punk could return after he recovered so that the former could destroy the latter and send him home once and for all.
It will be interesting to see if these two stars engage in a heated feud in the months leading up to WrestleMania 41.
