#1 Not a great move: It’s Rollins again

It's him again
It's him again

Let’s get this clear: Seth Rollins is one of the most talented Superstars in the industry right now. The Architect’s heel work after betraying his Shield brothers was some of the finest villainous acts of the decade, and he has earned every bit of the honors that he is being bestowed upon now.

Earlier this year, when Rollins won the Royal Rumble, the reaction of the fans in the arena said it all. They were all backing him after a great year in 2018 and he was the perfect logical choice to take the title off Lesnar.

As a result, everyone wanted him to walk out of the Show of Shows with the Universal Title in his hand, and when that happened, the fans were ecstatic. It felt like a new dawn for WWE.

But then, by the time Rollins was paired up with Becky Lynch, he had already said some things about Jon Moxley and his Twitter clash against Will Ospreay turned the fans away from him.

He was beginning to fall flat as a face and it was the perfect opportunity for another full-time Superstar to take the title off him. But in the end, Lesnar cashed in his MITB contract and won the title and now, Rollins has it again.

Again.

While the match ended in applause for the Beastslayer, let’s not forget that it wasn’t very long ago when the crowd was chanting for Lesnar to F5 Rollins “one more time”.
