WWE SummerSlam: 3 Reasons why Seth Rollins beating Brock Lesnar clean was a great move, & 2 reasons why it wasn’t

#1 Great move: Meaningful future feuds

Can these two face off now?

Now that Seth Rollins has the title once again, WWE can plan forward and have a meaningful feud going forward. They could have done it when he won the Championship at WrestleMania, but wasted the chance when they chose Baron Corbin as the number one contender for it.

At the time, the likes of Drew McIntyre and even Braun Strowman were more logical choices, but somehow, Baron Corbin got the nod ahead of them both. The company really tried to get the Lone Wolf over but failed miserably in the process.

In the end, we were left with months and months of a bout in which no-one was really invested. This also played a role in Rollins’ stock as a face falling and we can only hope that the company doesn’t make the same mistake twice.

Whatever happens from now is like a buildup to WrestleMania, so WWE will have to be very careful in choosing a worthy opponent for Rollins.

The sad thing, however, is that no-one from RAW has the momentum right now. McIntyre has been wasted as Shane McMahon’s bodyguard, Braun Strowman hasn’t been used since Extreme Rules, so it is very difficult to see who would be a good fit against Rollins right now.

But we hope that whoever it is, we would get a meaningful feud as it would be against two full-time Superstars.
