5 signs that WWE is setting up for Seth Rollins versus CM Punk at WrestleMania 36

#3 Rollins' heel turn

It really seems like this all is going according to plan for WWE

Everything happens for a reason and the same has to be true for Rollins's long-awaited heel turn. Of course, a lot of people are going to say it was due to negative reactions from the fans, or due to the fact that he stepped into the ring with The Fiend, but it might just be something else entirely.

In fact, between the heel turn happening only a month before The Road to WrestleMania 36 and his mini-feud with Punk on Twitter, this could be a way for the company to set up a match between the two. Interestingly enough, however, the biggest indicator that WWE wants to eventually do Rollins versus Punk has to do with The Kingslayer's alliance with The AOP.

Keep in mind that while WWE never officially went through with the move, The Shield was supposed to be a hired hand for CM Punk to help him keep retaining his championship back in 2012. This means that the addition of AOP to create a new, Shield-esque faction isn't only going to be for just heel heat, but also for the company to go back to where it all began.

That way, AOP can get the rub for the time being, Rollins can thrive as a heel champion, and Punk can eventually call him out on all of it!
