Seth Rollins To Remain On WWE Raw If He Wins The Universal Title At Royal Rumble
Could the Universal Championship be swapping brands again?
Jan 18, 2022
Seth Rollins has revealed that he'll stay on the Raw brand should he win the WWE Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble.
Rollins is set to take on defending champion Roman Reigns at the event on January 29, despite Reigns being a SmackDown Superstar, and Seth previously moving to Raw as part of the 2021 Draft.
On last night's Raw, Rollins was a guest on the Kevin Owens Show. There he revealed that if he becomes Universal Champion, he'll simply bring the title over to the red brand.
This may sound unlikely, given Reigns' dominance since becoming champion in August 2020, but amid reports that WWE are still aiming for a Reigns vs. Lesnar showdown at WrestleMania 38, we could be in for some convoluted booking along the way.
With Brock and Roman now champions on separate brands, there is speculation that one could lose their title at this month's Royal Rumble, freeing them up to face the other at WrestleMania.
While Reigns is set to defend against former Shield stablemate Rollins, Lesnar will defend the WWE Championship against Bobby Lashley.
