Seth Rollins vs. Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship is one of the matches advertised for tonight's WWE RAW. Although some signs may point that this could be The Visionary's last night as champion, that may not be the case.
AJ Styles battled the RAW star in a losing effort at Night of Champions last month for the World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins then vowed to become a fighting champion and issued an open challenge, which Damian Priest answered. Seth Rollins and Damian Priest will finally lock horns for the title tonight.
One reason Rollins could lose the title is due to his responsibilities outside WWE. It was previously shared that he landed a role in Marvel's Captain America: New World Order. The upcoming film is something that could need full commitment. Hence, Rollins could focus on his Hollywood career in the meantime. Despite this, fans may not see a new champion just yet.
