WWE Superstar Seth Rollins is set to challenge Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank. The Visionary returned on RAW last week, making his first appearance since WrestleMania 40. He received a hero's welcome from fans before crossing paths with the Archer of Infamy who granted him a title match.

Rollins is hungry to reclaim the championship he lost at WrestleMania. Damian Priest is determined to prove himself as a sold champion but he has problems surmounting the title. Their latest meeting on WWE RAW has undoubtedly put the current champion at a disadvantage with the new "gentlemen's agreement."

Here, we look at four signs indicating Seth Rollins will win the World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank. So, without further ado, let's begin.


#1. The stakes are too high for a one-off championship match

Damian Priest and Seth Rollins crossed paths on WWE RAW last night after The Archer of Infamy handed the title shot to the returning superstar last week. Rollins put forth the condition that if Priest loses he will have to leave The Judgment Day.

The creative team would want to keep Seth Rollins in the title picture even if he fails to reclaim the gold. But a loss for Priest will see him exit from The Judgment Day, leaving him free for a face turn. He almost lost his gold during the last championship defense when he faced Drew McIntyre.

With no help this time, Rollins may just have the upper hand over Priest when they meet in the title match.


#2. Shocking title change on WWE RAW

There were signs that Finn Balor is eyeing Damian Priest and his World Heavyweight Championship. Things could've become more tense if Balor had won the Money in the Bank briefcase but he couldn't get past the qualifier. It appeared that his recent string of losses would only make him more desperate to betray Priest.

However, Finn Balor and JD McDonagh defeated The Miz and R-Truth to become the World Tag Team Champions, thanks to Liv Morgan. With a title in hand, we may see Balor craft a different kind of plan that replaces a couple of members in The Judgment Day.


#3. The growing tension amid The Judgment Day

Speaking of Judgment Day, the heel faction has not enjoyed the same unity as they did when Reha Ripley was making the calls. Damian Priest took over the group after Mami's injury but his approach often makes him look like he is forcing his leadership on the faction. Additionally, he has repeatedly pushed his fellow members to take care of their business on WWE RAW.

We have seen Priest cut face promos, showing his challengers respect which is a trait missing from the group. He also refused their help and set himself above occasionally. The recent developments indicate that a split is imminent, and the WWE creative team could use Seth Rollins to take away the title from Priest and leave it potentially vulnerable for a cash-in at Money in the Bank.


#4. Huge betrayal at WWE Money in the Bank

Damian Priest will have to leave The Judgment Day if he loses his World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank but it may not entirely be in the hands of the champion.

We may see his faction decide for him before the final bell. A shocking turn of events could see Finn Balor attack Priest and cost him the title at WWE Money in the Bank, expelling the Archer of Infamy from the group before the latter quit himself.

This would give Balor a chance to tease a future title feud with Seth Rollins to end a long-term debt of their own. WWE could use it to establish Priest as a face on RAW and have him compete against his old faction with Dominik Mysterio potentially being torn between the two sides. We may also see Finn Balor bring in Liv Morgan to replace Rhea Ripley after the Women's World Champion helped him win the tag team gold.

The creative team would want to protect Damian Priest in the loss. This is the best way to crown Seth Rollins as the champion in time for CM Punk's return on WWE RAW.
