The Visionary has proven to be a fighting champion ever since he won the World Heavyweight Championship. Despite his back issues, he has fought all his challengers to prove he is the best in the world.
Last week, Rollins was challenged for the title again by Jinder Mahal, and as usual, he accepted it. Tonight on RAW, the odds were stacked against the champion as Mahal had Indus Sher with him in his corner. To make things worse, Damian Priest also took a seat at ringside.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
