5 ways to book Seth Rollins at Night of Champions

Rollins has been known to roll with a few henchmen.

Sting’s return has made life interesting for Seth Rollins.With Seth Rollins having to defend both his World Heavyweight Championship against Sting and United States title against John Cena, WWE has plenty of options for Night of Champions. In what is the biggest night of Seth’s career, it would prove a make or break situation for his World Championship reign. Exactly who walks out with those belts depends on a variety of factors, and here are few ways that could pan out,

#1 Authority interference

Rollins has been known to roll with a few henchmen.

Simultaneously the most overplayed yet a likely scenario, in a way, is that some iteration of the Authority interferes in one of the matches. Even if that comes in the form of Kane returning to pay Rollins back for his mistreatment earlier this year, the resulting disqualification would allow “The Architect” to retain a belt.

#2 Glory for Cena

John Cena has placed a ton of importance on the U.S. Title.

For some reason, there's been talk that, even though Sting is on the Night of Champions advertisement, the U.S. title match might actually be the main event of the show.

As little sense as that would make, it would allow for Cena to retain his most recent beloved belt and allow for some storytelling, with Rollins either coasting after knocking off Sting or consoling himself after a loss that he can still keep a belt.

If Rollins somehow walks away with neither belt, his character could take some really cool turns

#3 Sting walks out champion

Sting has been a surprising addition to the world title picture.

Even a month ago, no one would've thought Sting had a shot at a WWE championship of any kind. Then he returned and asked for a world title shot, and lo and behold, he got one.

Allowing Sting to win the World Heavyweight Championship one more time would be a huge gesture, particularly after his Wrestlemania booking. Further, older wrestling fans would get a kick out of “The Icon” coming out on top, and it would push The Authority’s much-needed breakup angle.

#4 Sheamus cash-in

Sheamus has been eying a return to gold since winning Money in the Bank.

Sheamus was a surprising, if not unpopular, pick to win the Money in the Bank briefcase this summer, and it seems that decision is coming home to roost soon. With an exhausted Rollins and an aging Sting as the two options for world champion at night’s end, the pickings would be ripe for “The Celtic Warrior."

Further, a cash-in with Authority approval would fast-track the breakup angle, and taking the title from Sting would cement his heel status. E

#5 Rollins retains

Seth Rollins became a double champ at SummerSlam.

Of course, if there's one thing the last few months have taught us, it's that Seth Rollins can weasel his way out of anything unscathed. Whether it's interference from Kane, or the Undertaker, or simply dumb luck, Rollins keeps his titles.

So while the odds seem good that one of his belts will be changing hands, the reality is we could just as easily see him hoisting both titles again next Raw. Unfortunately, the only way for this to really be entertaining would be if he beat both men clean, and that hasn't happened much
