Seth Rollins suffered a merciless attack at the hands of Bronson Reed this week on WWE RAW, days before their huge match at Crown Jewel. The Aussie star completely annihilated Rollins backstage after hitting a Death Valley Driver off a tractor-trailer in the parking lot. Following the onslaught, he was rushed to a local medical facility as he suffered a potential injury.
WWE said that while The Visionary's medical condition is being evaluated, clouds of uncertainty have been looming over his impending match. Given his history of injuries and concussions, fans have been expressing concerns. However, Seth Rollins is not injured in real life and his injury is only part of the ongoing storyline on RAW.
The reason behind WWE showcasing an injury angle is to add more depth to the ongoing animosity between Bronson Reed and The Visionary. There is a good possibility that the company could revoke the upcoming match between Reed and Rollins at Crown Jewel, accentuating the latter's on-screen injury. It has the potential to take this rivalry to a whole new dimension.
Meanwhile, Seth Rollins is completely fine and healthy, as there are no reports of him suffering any concussions or back injuries following his grueling segment on RAW. It will be interesting to see whether WWE scraps his match against Reed at the upcoming spectacle or if Rollins steps into the lion's den as an underdog not being 100% fit.

Regardless of what happens, things will certainly take an interesting turn in the coming weeks on Monday Night RAW.
Is WWE planning to stretch Seth Rollins' rivalry with Bronson Reed?
The rivalry between Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed has transcended the heights of ferocity. Both superstars have been on a rampage against each other on Monday Night RAW. Though they are set to lock horns in a match in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, this Saturday, this rivalry seems far from over.
The Triple H-led creative team seemingly has plans to stretch this rivalry beyond Crown Jewel. This is quite evident after the company showed a compelling backstage segment between the two this week. WWE often shows backstage brawls and segments when they intend to take a rivalry beyond one solitary PLE.
Moreover, The Visionary continuing his feud with Bronson Reed will keep both superstars in the spotlight. It will help The Aussie establish himself as a formidable monster on the flagship brand. Moreover, it will also help Rollins revert to his vicious persona before heading into a high-profile feud.
Hence, WWE is likely planning to stretch the Seth Rollins-Bronson Reed saga on RAW, continuing this feud for a month or two. It will be interesting to see how many more layers unfold in this rivalry.
