Seth Rollins vs. Bray Wyatt

Seth Rollins and Bray Wyatt are part of this stacked undercard scene for Raw that’s going to be jumbled and flipped around for months. Feuds will intertwine through the summer, potentially giving us this feud for SummerSlam.

Recently, we saw Rollins vs. Wyatt for the first time on Raw. They headlined the show, giving us a decent match. Could it be something to watch for, for a future encounter and feud, though?

Wyatt has struggled to find his footing since losing the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 33. He went through an awkward post-feud with Randy Orton, having that bizarre House of Horrors Match, that pretty much just featured dolls hanging from a ceiling. It resulted in a win for the Eater of Worlds, but not with the title on the line.

Rollins defeated Triple H at WrestleMania and Joe at Payback. However, he’s still not in an ideal position as a babyface. Something has been missing since his turn last year, and while he still gets good reactions, the connection he could have had as a top-tier good guy just isn’t there.

Maybe Wyatt vs. Rollins is the feud needed to help these two. They could star at SummerSlam and hope to push their 2017’s in the right direction.
