#3: Seth Rollins interrupted a returning Daniel Bryan; Murphy re-ignited his feud with The Messiah on WWE SmackDown

The Monday Night Messiah has shifted his focus to becoming WWE SmackDown's Savior. Unfortunately, that plan didn't work out the way he wanted it to on the Blue brand's season premiere episode.

Daniel Bryan returned and cut a promo saying he was excited to face some of SmackDown's latest recruits from the WWE Draft. Rollins interrupted and asked Bryan if he was on the Messiah's side or not. Both men weren't on the same page, and a brawl erupted between them as a result.

Before Rollins could flee the scene, Rey and Dominik Mysterio arrived to trap him inside the ring. Murphy entered the scene as well, and he was the one who eventually proceeded to beat up the Messiah.

Even though Murphy offered to become allies with Rey and Dominik, The Mysterios weren't too keen on accepting Murphy as a good guy.

The Mysterio Family and Murphy's rivalry against Seth Rollins is far from over. Still, the tease of a potential Rollins vs. Bryan feud in the future seems like an exciting proposition for the WWE Universe.
