Seth Rollins cut a promo during this week's WWE SmackDown, mocking his recent attacks on Cesaro. An "exclusive" audio clip from the latter's hospital room was played for laughs during the segment, as Rollins admitted that he blacked out while assaulting Cesaro last week.

Seth Rollins then proceeded to blame the WWE Universe for enabling Cesaro to step up against him, which indirectly cost The Swiss Superman in the form of a brutal ambush. Additionally, Rollins freed himself from taking the blame if Cesaro were to never step foot in the ring again.

"If @WWECesaro never steps foot in this ring ever again, the blame is on Cesaro, and the blame is on YOU."#SmackDown @WWERollins pic.twitter.com/MASFBGnCJq

Seth Rollins' latest promo didn't lead to any major developments, mainly to sell the impact of his beatdown on Cesaro. The latter will likely return soon to continue his feud against The Messiah.

A rematch between the two seems to be an immediate possibility unless their feud spills into the Universal Championship picture. In the latter case, a triple threat contest between Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Cesaro could take place at Hell in a Cell.
