Seth Rollins became a two-time Mr. Money in the Bank last weekend in Los Angeles. While the contract substantially increases The Visionary's odds of being a champion in the future, it doesn't necessarily guarantee it. In his first reign with the briefcase, Rollins successfully cashed in his contract at WrestleMania 31, a moment that has been etched in history as "The Heist of the Century".

However, The Visionary might not be able to repeat this with his current run with the briefcase. It is possible that the 39-year-old may be unsuccessful in his cash-in attempt this time, courtesy of a major star. The seeds of this potential scenario might have been planted by the Stamford-based promotion on this week's edition of RAW.

The star in question is none other than The Megastar himself, LA Knight. The former United States Champion came close to winning the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match this year and had a final back-and-forth sequence with Seth Rollins before The Visionary climbed the ladder and grabbed the briefcase.

The rivalry between The Megastar and Seth Rollins' group began on the go-home episode of SmackDown before MITB, where the villainous alliance attacked Knight during his match with Aleister Black.

During this week's RAW, the first round of the King of the Ring tournament took place, where Penta, Dominik Mysterio, Sami Zayn, and Bron Breakker locked horns in a Fatal Four Way match. In the closing moments of the bout, LA Knight appeared and took out Breakker with a BFT. After the attack, The Megastar posted a video on his X/Twitter and hinted that he would be coming for the villainous faction.

This rivalry could ultimately lead to The Visionary's downfall, as LA Knight may cost Seth Rollins whenever he decides to cash in his MITB contract. Knight is not someone who is known for holding back. With his bold and outspoken attitude, The Megastar likes to push all the boundaries whenever he is involved in a heated rivalry. Costing Rollins his shot at becoming a champion could come with serious repercussions, but that is exactly the kind of move the 42-year-old star would pull in a situation like this.

While it is certainly possible, it is worth noting that this scenario is purely speculative. Fans will have to wait and see how things unfold between LA Knight and Seth Rollins in the coming weeks.


WWE veteran believes LA Knight should join Seth Rollins' faction

After LA Knight failed to win the MITB Ladder Match in his third consecutive attempt, WWE veteran Jonathan Coachman discussed The Megastar's booking in the company and pitched an interesting idea for the future.

Coachman believes LA Knight should be the fourth man to join Seth Rollins' faction.

"I feel bad for him. I really do. HHH say(s) 'great things come to those who wait.' He isn’t 22 years old. What does he have to wait for? Just say it wasn’t his time or something. If I didn’t feel so strongly that the WWE needs a faction again I would be more pro LA Knight to win the MITB. But I love dominant factions. Always have. So I am wanting to see where this goes and who they add to it. To be honest, we’ve been discussing who could be the fourth member of that group and if you say the name, LA Knight, I wouldn’t hate it...," Coachman wrote.

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for The Megastar as he has set his sights on Seth Rollins' group.
