6. Seth Rollins vs. Triple H Will Happen

When Seth Rollins went down with an injury in Samoa Joe’s WWE debut, it seemed like a “here we go again” situation. Rollins had hurt his knee just months before WrestleMania 32, causing him to miss the show. So to see him go through this again, especially with a Triple H feud lingering for the second consecutive year, was painful to watch.

In WWE’s injury updates on Rollins on Raw, they said his WrestleMania status is “in doubt”. That’s probably true, but they’ve never guaranteed that he will miss the show. Maybe that’s because he will end up competing.

For the Architect to wrestle Triple H at WrestleMania 33, he probably can’t step into the ring beforehand. WWE won’t want to risk any type of injury to Rollins, so he can walk into the show as healthy as possible. Then they can let him appear on TV after April 2, but in nonphysical roles, before they feel comfortable enough having him regularly competing.

The Game isn’t a reckless worker at this stage of his career, so the risk of reinjuring him may be low, especially since this isn’t a high-flying Superstar. They can then have the match everyone’s wanted to see for a few years.
