The recently concluded SummerSlam event and the latest episode of Monday Night Raw didn’t end well for Seth Rollins. During his match against Drew McIntyre, CM Punk delivered a devastating GTS to knock him out. Meanwhile, Bronson Reed absolutely annihilated him on Raw with six consecutive Tsunamis. Many fans were concerned about his health after suffering a beatdown.
According to Dave Meltzer from Wrestling Observer Radio, the Aussie star’s attack was intended to write Seth Rollins off TV. After losing his World Heavyweight Title to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania XL, Rollins took a break to heal from his injuries. He returned on the June 17th episode of Raw and got involved in the rivalry between CM Punk and The Scottish Warrior.
On the latest episode of Raw, The Best in the World decided to challenge McIntyre again. However, before he could challenge The Scottish Warrior for one more match, Seth Rollins came out, expressing his anger towards him. They had a serious standoff until McIntyre came out and provoked Punk to the point where he chased after him. Seeing Rollins alone in the ring, Reed seized the opportunity and annihilated him by hitting not one, not two, but six mammoth Tsunamis.
During a backstage interview, Raw General Manager Adam Pearce shed some light on The Architect’s health. He stated that although it was too soon to determine anything, the medical staff was concerned about the possibility of further internal bleeding. It will be interesting to see when he makes his return to WWE.
Fans expressed their opinions on the reason why Bronson Reed attacked Seth Rollins
The WWE Universe began speculating about the reasons why Bronson Reed might have attacked The Visionary. Some fans were concerned they might not see Rollins in the squared circle again, while others saw it coming after witnessing the severity of the attack.
One fan stated that the former world champion taking some time off made sense, considering he returned way earlier than he was supposed to. Another fan stated that would help him stay away from the Punk-McIntyre storyline for a while. Here are some of the top reactions from fans:
One user was extremely disappointed by the news, as Rollins had just returned a month ago. Another user expressed a desire to see a match between Rollins and Bronson at the upcoming PLE, Bash in Berlin. Many fans shared their hopes for the rivalry between the two stars to grow more intense.
