Triple H‘s claim that the monumental shift regarding WWE’s ownership wouldn’t change anything on RAW made little sense to the fans and others who kept a close eye on the show. The entire show was seemingly disappointing, with many late rewrites before and after it went live.
Fans can sense McMahon’s imprints on it even before it has been confirmed that he is ‘firmly back’ with the creative as part of the latest deal. Out of many sudden last-minute changes he made, some came out as extremely bizarre. One of these involves Seth Rollins’ post-Mania segment that was probably cut live during a commercial break.

Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins came to the ring to the ring dancing, relishing his victory over Logan Paul. The crowd sang his theme song loudly. Moments later, out of the blue, Rollins left the ring without uttering a single word. It was an unusual way to end a segment and now we have a reason as to why it happened.
It was pretty unusual and shocking to many fans until a recent viral video unveiled the actual reason behind it. The untelevised fan-shot video on Twitter went viral, and it shows Rollins with a microphone in his hand conversing with some crew members in between a commercial break and is probably being told about some changes in his ongoing segment. We saw the aftereffects as the show resumed.
‘The Architect’ seems visibly low upon hearing the information from the crew. As soon as the video came to light, fans didn’t take long to go back to their usual ‘Vince is back’ stance for pointing out the major injustice to one of the most decorated superstars on the roster.
It’s disgraceful and a new low even for Vince in terms of booking and that is saying something

This is the equivalent of being schedule to go to work and you make your hour long commute only to find out that they don’t need you today. This shit is unprofessional and embarrassing. And we can thank only one man for this. pic.twitter.com/tSkxizni2b

Providing Seth Rollins’ incredible run with WWE over the years, fans believe it’s not the right thing to do.
Making one of your best workers go through this is not a good look

Some of them reflected on how uncomforting it might be for Rollins at that time.
Absolutely embarrassing.

They utterly condemned the humiliation Rollins had to undergo because of McMahon’s apparent move.

Raw after Mania was certainly not very satisfying for Rollins. But his recent WrestleMania performance is worth looking back at.
Seth Rollins’ spectacular victory against Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39
‘The Visionary’ went head-to-head with the social media sensation, Logan Paul at WrestleMania Night 1. Both performers stunned 80,000 live fans with an exciting match, that saw Rollins come out on top. Logan Paul was going right in the direction of victory until his long-time boxing rival and current business partner, KSI, turned up in the ring. Paul accidentally frog-splashed KSI when he tried to go for Rollins.

It eventually allowed the Visionary to hit him with a Curb stomp to emerge victorious at the show of the shows. Although Logan Paul once again proved his in-ring talent, it was Rollins whose dominance prevailed.
Speaking of the recent unpopular segment of Raw, there is no official confirmation of the speculation of why Rollins’ segment was cut short.
