Next step in Roman Reigns' story, interfere in major title match? - 4 things Seth Rollins can do on WWE RAW
Last week's episode of WWE Monday Night RAW featured an epic main event. Former Universal Champion Braun Strowman locked horns with "Big" Bronson Reed in a Last Monster Standing Match, and the bout was genuinely insane.
Weapons were used, the ring and barricades were broken, and numerous officials were attacked. Still, despite the chaos, the biggest surprise was the return of Seth Rollins, who returned in a big way, costing Reed the bout.
Seth had been away from television since the August 5, 2024, episode of RAW, but he is now back and seemingly fit. In fact, Monday Night RAW General Manager Adam Pearce revealed that The Visionary would appear on tonight's episode of the red brand.
It isn't clear what Seth will do following his big return, but there are several interesting routes he could take on Monday Night RAW tonight. This article will break down a handful of possible options, which could include joining The Bloodline saga once again, setting up a match for Crown Jewel, and beyond.
Below are four things Seth Rollins can do on WWE RAW.
#4. He could attack Bronson Reed backstage on WWE RAW
As noted, Bronson Reed and Braun Strowman were battling it out in a Last Monster Standing Match on WWE RAW last week when The Visionary returned. He showed up by delivering a vicious stomp onto Bronsons' head against the steel steps.
This attack wasn't out of nowhere. This was revenge for Rollins, as on a past episode of WWE RAW, Bronson attacked The Visionary out of nowhere. He proceeded to hit the Tsunami Splash repeatedly, which is what took Seth out of action.
As a result, Rollins likely wants to get more revenge on the powerful Australian than one lone stomp. That could mean that Seth will attack Bronson backstage on Monday Night RAW, perhaps getting into a physical brawl that needs officials and security to break up, which Reed is all too familiar with.
#3. Seth Rollins could challenge Bronson to a match at Crown Jewel
WWE Monday Night RAW is often chaotic. Adam Pearce, the General Manager of the red brand, is all too well aware of this. Despite that, and despite him occasionally showing frustration over it, he also generally embraces the chaos.
Still, Seth could take a more measured approach. Instead of immediately resorting to violence, The Visionary could step into the WWE Monday Night RAW ring with a microphone in hand and address the big man.
In his promo, Seth could not only call out Bronson Reed's poor behavior, but he could make a big challenge. With Crown Jewel just weeks away, Rollins could challenge the big man to a one-on-one match in Saudi Arabia. Will Reed accept the challenge? Could the two clash at the big show?
#2. He could interfere in Gunther vs Sami Zayn to try and get involved in the title picture
A massive match is planned for WWE Monday Night RAW. The reigning World Heavyweight Champion will be putting his prized title on the line against Sami Zayn. This comes after The Underdog From The Underground has been almost begging for a title opportunity for weeks.
There is a chance that this big-time bout will have interference. Some suspect Ludwig Kaiser will try to interfere on behalf of Gunther. Meanwhile, other WWE fans are predicting Goldberg could get involved following the confrontation he and Gunther had at Bad Blood.
Instead of either man, however, it could be Seth Rollins who interferes. He could decide he's done with Bronson and wants to regain a title he made famous. Seth could attack both men and leave them laid out, which could set up a future Triple Threat match with the gold on the line.
#1. Seth could verbally insert himself into the Roman Reigns storyline
The Bloodline story continues to be quite intriguing, as are the tentacles of which play off into other angles. For example, WWE Bad Blood saw the returns of The Rock and Jimmy Uso, plus Kevin Owens turned heel on Cody Rhodes thanks to The American Nightmare's involvement in the angle.
Seth Rollins has been a key player in the storyline at various points over the past few years. In fact, he even cost Roman Reigns the Undisputed WWE Title at WrestleMania after wrestling both the OTC and The Rock the prior night.
Come Monday Night RAW, Seth could discuss everything that went down at Bad Blood and insert himself back into the story. He could say he isn't done with The Rock and wants a piece of him. Rollins could also express disappointment in Cody Rhodes aligning himself with Roman Reigns, albeit briefly.
