Seth Rollins served as the Special Guest Referee for Drew McIntyre and CM Punk's encounter at WWE SummerSlam 2024. However, the current storyline may or may not continue after the controversial finish.
During the closing moments of the match, CM Punk got infuriated at Seth Rollins for wearing his bracelet. After being advised to concentrate on the ongoing battle, Punk hit the referee with a GTS, taking him out for a considerable period. Drew McIntyre capitalized with a low blow followed by a Claymore Kick to pick up the victory at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
Judging by the finish, let's take a look at five possible directions for The Visionary following The Biggest Party of The Summer.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#5. Seth could target CM Punk on WWE RAW
It is no secret that Seth Rollins has hated CM Punk for a long time, and has not been able to have a one-on-one match with the latter. A tease of their potential rivalry was already given at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
After enraging The Best in the World and receiving a devastating GTS, Seth did not hesitate to count to three when Drew McIntyre covered his opponent. This was a clear indication of mutual hate between the two stars in question.
While McIntyre secured the victory, Punk may blame Rollins for his loss, resulting in a rivalry.
#4. Go after Drew McIntyre
Another backlash from the match could be a huge change in Drew McIntyre's on-screen attitude. While he has always complained about not being able to put CM Punk to sleep, that objective has been achieved.
The Scottish Warrior may not give much-deserved credit to Rollins, leading to a greater conflict between the two. He could also try to win the World Heavyweight Championship back and Seth may not want anyone else to get an opportunity before himself. It will also be interesting to see the Second City Saint play the role of an instigator.
#3. Challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship
Seth Rollins kept the promise he made to Damian Priest by not trying to challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship until Priest lost. Now that Gunther is the new champion, The Visionary may try to win back the title he lost to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania XL.
Judging by the ongoing storyline, Rollins may challenge for Gunther's coveted gold after WWE SummerSlam 2024, but there is a high chance that McIntyre or CM Punk will interfere to ensure The Ring General picks up the victory. This scenario might add another layer of drama to the heated rivalry.
#2. Challenge Bron Breakker
Out of the five title changes that happened at WWE SummerSlam 2024, Bron Breakker's victory over Sami Zayn was perhaps the most dominant one. The rivalry between the two appears to be settled, and the current Intercontinental Champion will look for new challengers.
Seth Rollins could shift his focus to the Intercontinental Championship in case Damian Priest plans to chase the title he lost. He could also be the perfect challenge for Bron Breakker, who could really benefit from a victory over a veteran like Rollins.
This path could also witness another Intercontinental Championship reign for The Visionary, so fans will be up for a treat.
#1. Seth Rollins could reunite with Roman Reigns in The Bloodline Saga
Considering how Jey Uso switched brands last year after leaving The Bloodline, Seth Rollins could complain to RAW General Manager Adam Pearce about the unnecessary assault he suffered at the hands of CM Punk at SummerSlam 2024. He may not want anything to do with both Drew McIntyre and Punk, thus shifting to WWE SmackDown.
Considering Roman Reigns returned as a babyface, there is a high chance that Seth Rollins will join him, Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens against Solo Sikoa's Bloodline. A potential reunion is what fans will always appreciate, especially when The Original Tribal Chief and The Visionary go against The Bloodline.
There are tons of possibilities, and the fallout episode of RAW after WWE SummerSlam 2024 may hold answers.
