Seth Rollins injury has thrown WWEs creative plans into chaos, but now we know just how big those plans really were.
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Rollins was penciled in for one of the biggest matches WWE could book a WrestleMania showdown against Roman Reigns. While discussing Rollins health and the shocking turn by Bron Breakker on RAW, Meltzer revealed that the Visions leader was supposed to collide with Reigns on the grandest stage of them all.
Meltzer explained that the long-term vision of Rollins faction was never about him, but about launching Bron Breakker into superstardom.
Bryan Alvarez noted that WWE had already been planting seeds for the eventual split but at a much slower pace.
Meltzer emphasized that WWE wanted the breakup to pay off down the road, with Rollins vs Reigns being a central piece of that puzzle.
The injury has now forced WWE to pivot, pulling the trigger on Bron Breakkers betrayal of Rollins much earlier than expected and leaving WrestleManias plans wide open. What could have been a blockbuster Rollins vs Reigns main event may no longer be possible.
