The return will happen if Big E ends up getting cleared.
#3. 2-time Universal Champion Seth Rollins may turn heel soon
Seth Rollins returned to action recently and destroyed Bronson Reed with a Stomp on the steel steps, where the star was trying to stand up to get the win in his Last Monster Standing Match. Instead, Braun Strowman won.
Since then, Rollins and Reed have taken shots but are yet to confront each other. However, The Visionary has made it clear that he wants to face CM Punk down the line.
As per reports, though, he may be turning heel soon. This would be the first time he will turn heel in the last two years. A heel Rollins facing CM Punk might make for an intense feud, but fans will have to wait for Punk to return before that happens.
