Here are a few scenarios for Seth Rollins going ahead.


Arguably one of the most unlucky superstars in WWE in the last six months has been Seth Rollins. Lost against The Rock and Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania XL night one teaming up with Cody Rhodes. Then lost his World Heavyweight Championship to Drew McIntyre the next night. God badly injured, still had the guts to go out and help Cody against The Bloodline.
Went to recovery ,rehabilitated properly and came back to recapture his World Heavyweight Championship against Damian Priest, but not to be as CM Punk had other plans. One of the most hardworking and dedicated superstars in the recent history of WWE, yet the most unfortunate and unlucky guy in the locker room.

CM Punk and Seth Rollins don’t see eye to eye as their history suggests. Both of them have been taking shots at each other even when Punk was not a part of WWE. There is no love lost between the two even before Money in the Bank. But what Punk did at Money in the Bank, although unintentionally, has only fuelled the fire that is lit between the two modern day greats. Rollins was visibly angry at the end of the world heavyweight title match. Punk, while trying to get revenge from Drew McIntyre, also made sure that Rollins loses the match. Unfortunately, a stipulation was set before the match on Raw that if Rollins loses against Priest, he will not be able to challenge for the World Heavyweight title until Priest is the Champion. Now left to rue his luck, ‘The Architect’ has to go back to the drawing board and start afresh in his bid to capture the world title.

He may want to settle scores with Punk considering his disliking for the Second City Saint and take out all his pent up frustration. But, since Punk is not fully fit(as of yet) and also in between a very intense and hatred filled rivalry with Drew Mcintyre which has not just affected their own lives but also the whole World Heavyweight Championship picture in the WWE, Rollins will have to wait for his turn to fight Punk.

Also, since he is a part of the Raw roster, it is highly unlikely that he chases the WWE Undisputed Championship currently held by Cody Rhodes, which Seth himself helped him capture. Yes there are mid card championships on the horizon too but at this stage of his career would he want to take a risk of such proportion is questionable. What would frustrate Seth 'Freakin’ Rollins and his fans alike is the fact that he himself never wanted to fight Priest for the title straightaway. He wanted it the hard way by winning the Money in the Bank ladder match, but it was Priest who challenged him as soon as Seth returned to Raw. Knowing The Visionary that Rollins is, he must have some ideas up his sleeve definitely and he will not sit Idle waiting for things to happen but would rather want to make things happen on his own as he has always done.
