Who could be added to Seth Rollins vs CM Punk?

As per a recent report by Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, Seth Rollins vs CM Punk is the slated match to take place at WrestleMania 40. However, Rollins suffered an injury on RAW last week which has put a question mark over his future. Speculations suggest that The Visionary should be ready by the time WrestleMania arrives on the horizon.

The Visionary suffered a torn MCL and a partially torn meniscus. He would require around 4 weeks off unless he needs to go for surgery which would increase the time. This is the first time Rollins is likely to main event WrestleMania and he would surely not want to miss the chance.

WWE could still go ahead with CM Punk vs Seth Rollins by adding Brock Lesnar to the equation. It has been reported that The Beast Incarnate is soon to return. By adding a third person to the match, the weight of the match will be reduced for Rollins and he could be protected in the match as he won't have to carry it.
