"This a set up to a mystery Wrestlemania match?" - Twitter explodes as Seth Rollins calls out top AEW star once again

The wrestling world speculated that The Visionary Seth Rollins' is setting up his WrestleMania match following his most recent comments about two-time AEW World Champion CM Punk.

The Visionary was a special guest at Fox Sports Radio. During the interview, Rollins opened up about CM Punk. He mentioned that considering their past, it hurts for him to say anything bad about him. However, at the same time, the two are not friends at the moment, and Rollins mentioned that it's because the Straight Edge Savior is in a different headspace.

"Here’s the thing that I will say one thing about Punk and end it on a positive note with him: that guy has given my career so much that it pains me to have to say bad things about him because he helped me out, he really did. He’s been a good guy to me for a lot of my career but for whatever reason, the past, maybe, six-seven years, he’s in a different headspace and we’re not on the same page," Seth Rollins said.

Following this interview, several members of the wrestling world believed that this was building up to a match between the two in the near future.

The Visionary has made some harsh comments about CM Punk in the past, and as a result, some fans have accused Rollins of being hypocritical. They also suggested that if it hurts him to talk ill about the AEW star, he could just avoid the conversation.

A few fans sided with the former WWE Universal Champion. They also mentioned that CM Punk's actions in last year's post-AEW All Out media scrum were unprofessional, and thus fans and wrestlers turned on him.

Seth Rollins called CM Punk 'a cancer'

Last month, Seth Rollins was interviewed by Wrestling Inc's Nick Hausman at the WWE 2K23 Royal Rumble hands-on event. During the interview, Rollins was asked about his thoughts on CM Punk potentially returning to WWE. The Visionary replied by calling Punk 'a cancer' in the business and wanted him to stay far away from the promotion.

"Oh Philly Phil, stay away. Stay away you cancer. Get away from me forever. Yeah no I don’t like Phil, he’s a jerk. Did we just figure that out? Everyone in the room is like ‘oh no, did he say that?’ Yeah, no he’s a jerk. We figured that out over there, we knew it over here, I don’t want him back. Go do something else. Bye bye, see you later!” (H/T Wrestletalk)

Rollins is set to enter the Elimination Chamber to try and re-claim the WWE United States Championship.
