This could be the right time for Seth Rollins and Murphy to go their different paths
#2. Mustafa Ali x Rollins

Is it time for Ali to replace Murphy?
While Seth Rollins has propelled Murphy, Ricochet isn't the only mid-carder on WWE Monday Night RAW who has fallen down the pecking order. With him, former WWE 205 Live sensation Mustafa Ali could also be included in that list.

Ali has had some memorable storylines in WWE so far and throughout his four year tenure with the company, has earned multiple opportunities to win a title in the company. However, to some it may come as a surprise that Ali is yet to win a title in WWE and being a part of the stacked RAW mid-card isn't helping his case.
On this week's episode of RAW, another former 205 Live Superstar in Cedric Alexander finally joined The Hurt Business and is likely to receive a push along with the likes of MVP, Bobby Lashley, and Shelton Benjamin as part of the faction.
Similarly, Ali could also do himself a favour if he is paired alongside someone like Rollins. Ali almost has a similar in-ring style to Murphy and shouldn't have too much of a problem in generating on-screen chemistry with The Monday Night Messiah.
