Seth Rollins has a plan for himself on WWE SmackDown

WWE SmackDown Superstar Seth Rollins was extremely unhappy with the creative team’s decision to book another title match between Roman Reigns and Edge. He argued that The Rated-R Superstar already had his chance at WrestleMania, and now it is time for other challengers to get a chance.

Rollins’ promo on Talking Smack went viral as fans appreciated his logic, authenticity, and delivery during his passionate argument.

The Architect has made it clear that he wants to be back in the world title picture. Rollins now needs one opportunity to challenge Roman Reigns, but he also has his sights set on a backup plan. Seth Rollins could steal one of the spots reserved for the WWE SmackDown Superstars in the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder match.

He shares an incredible history with the MITB briefcase as he is responsible for crafting one of the best cash-ins in WWE history. Seeing how he isn’t getting a fair shot at the world title, Rollins will look to win the MITB contract again and use it to kickstart a dream feud with Roman Reigns on WWE SmackDown. He will definitely account for an exciting addition to the Money in the Bank ladder match.

It must be mentioned that Seth Rollins tied the knot with Becky Lynch earlier this week. Thus, he might miss WWE SmackDown tonight.
