#1. Worst: Murphy trying to get back with Seth Rollins on SmackDown

Murphy was absent from SmackDown since early December 2020. He concluded his rivalry with Seth Rollins and face turn when he aligned with the Mysterio family and started a romantic angle with Rey Mysterio's daughter Aalyah.

That was abruptly ended after Murphy beat Seth Rollins, which is why his role on SmackDown was so bizarre. Seth Rollins cut a promo backstage, and Murphy came to him and offered to help him with his "Cesaro situation".

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

Seth Rollins immediately told Murphy to get out of his sight, but he was a close spectator on the commentary booth as Cesaro took on the Australian. It was an impressive and dominant display by Cesaro, who made Murphy tap out in front of Rollins.

The four-time World Champion seemed impressed and gave him an ovation. But the idea of Murphy trying to get back with Rollins is a bad idea, and it will hurt the former Cruiserweight Champion in the long run.

It's time for Murphy to move past his time with Seth Rollins, though he definitely benefited from the alliance in his own way.
