#3 Hit on WWE SmackDown: Seth Rollins remerges as a magnificent heel

Seth Rollins knows how to get under someone's skin

Tonight, on WWE SmackDown, Seth Rollins finally got the feud that he needed ever since he lost his Universal Championship and turned heel in 2019. He has always been excellent at playing a villain. But until recently, Rollins was either forced into the same feud for too long or was limited to a handful of opponents. But things are going to be different now that he has started a feud with Edge.

Rollins made his presence felt in the Money in the Bank main event when his interference cost the WWE legend his Universal Championship match against Roman Reigns. The Rated-R Superstar demanded a confrontation on WWE SmackDown tonight, and it brought out the heel Seth “Freakin” Rollins that we saw back in the early 2010s.

He warned Edge that this time he wouldn’t hesitate from retiring him inside the ring. The Rated-R Superstar took offense and attacked Rollins.

We have a SummerSlam feud at hand that has the potential to go down as one of the best storylines in history. Rollins’ promo was incredible, and it just added to the anticipation surrounding his eventual feud with Roman Reigns.
