Seth Rollins is currently feuding with CM Punk on RAW, and they are set to battle. WWE analyst Sam Roberts recently addressed a potential twist in the storyline that would see an unexpected heel turn.
The Visionary and The Best in the World are scheduled to go head-to-head next Monday on RAW's debut episode on Netflix. Last night on the red brand, the two superstars had a promo battle in which they both took massive shots at each other. With both superstars currently considered babyfaces, Roberts wondered if Rollins would still be a babyface coming out of this rivalry.
On his Notsam Wrestling podcast, the 41-year-old claimed that one way not to have The Visionary turn heel would be to have Punk become the villain, possibly by cheating to win their square-off, in an unexpected twist:
"There's one way for Seth Rollins not to become a villain in this rivalry, CM Punk becomes a villain. Does CM Punk cheat and win the match? Does somebody interfere?" Roberts said. [From 20:23 - 20:34]

WWE veteran Tommy Dreamer praised CM Punk and Seth Rollins' promo battle
Many fans have praised CM Punk and Seth Rollins' war of words last night on RAW. Former WWE Superstar Tommy Dreamer also reacted to the promo battle on the Busted Open podcast.
Although the ECW legend revealed that he loved it, he pointed out a few changes that he would have made to Rollins' promo:
"I loved it, man. If I was Seth Rollins, I would've went, 'Well, this is what you've done when you were here,' as opposed to I liked where he listed all the people that left and then threw a jab at CM Punk. But I would've gone with, 'This is what you've done since you've been here. You are also still just all about yourself.' Then where's that when he went up with The Usos and Bloodline. There's more for Seth in the past as opposed to the present because CM Punk has done everything by the book," he said.
It would be interesting to see who will come out on top when Punk and Rollins clash next Monday on WWE RAW.
