5 reasons why Seth Rollins was chosen as the captain of Team RAW for Survivor Series

#1 To set-up a possible heel turn

Will Seth Rollins secretly accept Triple H's invitation?

Last week, when Triple H interrupted Seth Rollins’ announcement regarding his future, the entire segment pointed towards a possible storyline that could benefit Rollins and the company.

Triple H offered Rollins to join him and NXT in their war against the main roster, an offer he did not exactly refuse. Rollins later asked Triple H to grant him an NXT Championship match as he said he’d return to NXT as the Champion if he were to return at all.

Fans have been speculating and waiting for a heel turn from Seth Rollins for a while now, and we could see that happen at Survivor Series during the tradition elimination match.

WWE could allow Rollins to turn heel during the match, and as the team captain, it would make a great spot since not many fans would be expecting the move on such a big stage. On top of that, a loss for RAW during the match because of Rollins’ antics will definitely protect the flagship brand, while potentially awarding the extremely high-profile match to NXT to show that it is not a developmental brand anymore.

The entire script writes itself from thereon, and we could either see Rollins return to RAW the next night as the relentless heel we’ve seen him act out in the past or as a big part of NXT.
