Seth Rollins didn’t make a bluff when he took the pledge to be an active World Champion, unlike Roman Reigns. Since he was crowned with the new World Heavyweight Championship at Night of Champions earlier this year, he didn’t sit still with his honor. Rather, he put it on the line several times and managed to walk away with it every time with grace.
The staggering Crown Jewel victory against Drew McIntyre was the last title defense during a PLE in which The Visionary has taken part. He then accepted Sami Zayn’s pursuit of his title and successfully overcame the next hurdle. That said, it will be his last as well at least till the end of this month.

Rollins Heavyweight Championship won’t be at stake at Survivor Series 2023. And it marks the first time that Rollins won’t defend his title in the last six months. However, Rollins isn’t free from the hands of threats that stalk him at every step.
Apart from a frenzied Damian Priest lurking around, Rollins might have reasons to worry about something more. Despite WWE’s dismissal, CM Punk could return and launch an attack on Rollins to settle their past social media beef.
