Seth Rollins’ Visionary Plans Reportedly Ruined by Vince McMahon as Another Top Star Gets a Second Chance to Shine

Seth Rollins is the current Heavyweight Champion. After his big win, Rollins has been restless for opponents to defend his title. There were several rumors surrounding his challenger. But Rollins issued an open challenge to defend his title on RAW. He was supposed to host the open challenge when Finn Balor showed up and started attacking him with Coup de grce three times.

There have been several reports from multiple sources that, Vince McMahon was the mastermind who planned this segment.

Vince McMahon made changes to Rollins’ opening plans

In a surprising turn of events, Vince McMahon, the chairperson of WWE, made significant changes to the opening segment of RAW just moments before the show was supposed to air.

Although McMahon was not present in the show, he was coordinating remotely with the team. There was a completely different scenario scripted for Rollin’s opening segment with a match scheduled. However, McMahon wasn’t convinced by it and decided to change the segment.

According to McMahon, he wanted a headstrong start and a special element as Rollins and Balor are set to fight the Bank match. Finn Balor’s sudden appearance at the event was a complete shock for the audience. Just as McMahon planned it, the audience got extremely excited.

Triple H is the creative head of the WWE. However, McMahon, staying in incognito, keeps an eye on the proceedings of the company and has a say on a lot of things.

Rollins and Balor are going to feature in a match on the 1st of July at the Money In The Bank 2023 PLE event over the World Heavyweight Championship.

Finn Balor had earlier failed to advance to the World Heavyweight Title tournament but now gets a second chance to claim championship gold. This match will also be their second world title match after Balor beat Rollins at SummerSlam 2016 to win the Universal title.

Finn Balor gets another opportunity to defeat Rollins and claim the title

Rollins and Balor faced each other during SummerSlam in 2016, Balor won the match but was legitimately injured by Rollins due to a botched buckle bomb on the barricade. Balor was forced to vacate the Universal title the next night on RAW.

If Balor wins the match against Rollins in London, that will mark the Irishman’s second-ever world championship to win in WWE, creating a historic moment. Fans await the match with great intrigue as Balor looks to avenge his ill-fated injury at the hands of Rollins seven years ago.
