The Visionary asked what his plans were and offered to help Cody against The Bloodline. Seth blamed himself for creating the Roman Reigns we know today when they broke up the SHIELD, and The Rock was just as entitled as Roman, so now there were two of them!
Rollins said that he would be Cody's shield against The Bloodline going forward. Does this mean that Cody and Rollins are going to be teaming up for WrestleMania?
