Seth Rollins refused to join the OG Bloodline despite multiple attempts
Despite multiple attempts from the OG faction, Seth Rollins refused to join forces with a ‘tyrant’ like Roman Reigns. Rollins’ rival Reed meanwhile joined the rogue faction led by Solo Sikoa for the WarGames clash.
This led many to believe that Rollins would be the fifth member of Reigns’ Bloodline. However, on the 11/22 episode of SmackDown, Paul Heyman made his return to rescue his Tribal Chief.
Heyman also brought ‘The Second City Saint’ CM Punk with him to join the OG faction as their fifth member for the WarGames clash. The addition of Punk has raised questions for The Visionary, especially since Reed, with whom he was feuding, is also involved in the Bloodline clash at the Survivor Series PLE.
Let us now explore four possible paths that The Visionary can take after the addition of The Second City Saint to the Bloodline match.
4. Challenge the winner of Gunther vs Damian Priest
The Visionary could insert himself in the title picture and face the winner of the match between Gunther and Damian Priest. Gunther is scheduled to defend his World Heavyweight Title against Priest at the upcoming Survivor Series.
Rollins is one of the top stars of the Red brand who has held multiple titles, although currently, he doesn’t hold any titles. This could motivate The Visionary to challenge himself and fight the World Heavyweight Champion.
Rollins’ animosity with Punk is well known among the pro wrestling fandom. The Second City Saint has also expressed his desire to face Gunther for the Heavyweight crown.
However, if Rollins can grab the title in the aftermath of the Survivor Series it would set up a huge storyline involving the two legends.
3. Seth Rollins could interfere in the WarGames match
The Visionary is not scheduled for any match on the upcoming PLE. However, there is a chance that he could interfere in the Bloodline clash at the upcoming PLE.
Rollins can kill three birds with one stone with his interference as he can get his revenge on Solo Sikoa for costing him the match last week against Bronson Reed. The Visionary could also target Reed, with whom he still has unfinished business.
On top of that, Rollins’ interference could be used in future storylines against Punk. The promotion could have Rollins cost the OG faction the match or make it seem like the OG faction still needed The Visionary’s help despite Punk’s addition to the team.

2. Targeting the Bloodline independently
The Visionary had made it clear that he would never join hands with his old friend Roman Reigns. While Reigns on the other hand is also not too keen on hashing the beef.
Meanwhile, Reigns and company are ready to take on the rogue faction led by Sikoa. Reigns and company suffered defeat earlier this month at Crown Jewel PLE. The devastating loss ruptured the newly reunited faction’s momentum and the legitimate win solidified Sikoa’s claim to the throne of the Tribal Chief.
The rogue Bloodline has two giants who can shift the tide of a match at any moment, making it even more difficult for the OG faction to secure a win. The rogue faction also won the advantage match in the 11/29 pre-taped episode.
Jacob Fatu defeated Jey Uso to win the advantage match on the 11/29 episode of SmackDown. This has further increased their chances of winning. If the rogue faction prevails again, The Visionary could take it upon himself to end the tyranny of Sikoa given his hatred for authoritarianism.
Rollins has also turned down Sikoa’s attempt to hire him as the fifth member for the clash at the PLE. Seth stated that he wouldn’t team up with Reigns but he would also never team up with a wannabe Roman Reigns.
1. Start a feud with CM Punk
The Visionary doesn’t get very along with Punk, and their mutual hatred has spilled over many times in the WWE. During Punk’s feud with Drew McIntyre, The Visionary tried to insert himself into the rivalry.
Since the return of Punk last week, the promotion could reignite the feud and start a storyline involving the two stars. Rollins can also point out Punk’s hypocrisy in joining forces with Reigns despite their unpleasant history.
Rollins could make a dramatic appearance on the November 25 episode of Monday Night Raw, where he might deliver a scathing promo exposing CM Punk. He could call out Punk for his recent actions, challenging him to a showdown that would escalate their rivalry and set the stage for an intense confrontation.
