Rollins is the World Heavyweight Champion on WWE RAW and he defended his prestigious belt against Shinsuke Nakamura at tonight's house show in Utica. After defeating Nakamura, Rollins began cutting a promo but was interrupted by chants of CM Punk.
Seth Rollins kept listening patiently before he jokingly asked, "Excuse me, who's that?" Rollins then asked the fans in attendance if Punk was in the building. He then made it clear that Punk is not the "Best in the World," he was. Rollins then thanked the capacity crowd for a jam-packed show before finishing off his promo.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
