Is Seth Rollins Turning Heel? Major Tease on WWE RAW

by

Recently, viewers of WWE RAW observed a significant hint suggesting that Seth Rollins, a former World Heavyweight Champion, might undergo a villainous transformation, or “heel turn”. After his defeat against CM Punk during the initial broadcast of WWE RAW on Netflix in early 2025, Rollins has had a challenging beginning to the year.

Last week, I squared off with CM Punk after our match didn’t go my way. To my surprise, he announced his entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble. I felt like I let myself down, underestimating him and falling short on the grandest stage of my career. Now, I’m determined to make it right by shattering Punk’s dreams at WrestleMania.

Later on, Rollins declared that Punk wouldn’t emerge victorious in the Royal Rumble, as he intended to secure the title himself. Despite his apparent animosity towards Punk, some fans speculate this could pave the way for a possible villainous transformation in the ex-World Heavyweight Champion.

Last week, Rollins didn’t make a heel turn, but WWE RAW subtly prepared the groundwork for one. Karrion Kross might be instrumental in this, given that he was observed watching Rollins from behind the scenes during the broadcast.

During the WWE RAW broadcast last week, Sami Zayn showed empathy towards Seth Rollins, providing him friendship support amidst his struggles. In response, Rollins admitted that the past week had been challenging but also pointed out that it had been successful for Zayn.

Sami Zayn looked puzzled when Seth Rollins disclosed that Roman Reigns possessed the Ula Fala again. Rollins then posed a question to Zayn, asking if he would keep supporting Reigns or start looking out for himself. Once Rollins conveyed this message, he departed, leaving Zayn deep in thought.

This past WWE RAW, Sami Zayn revealed his entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble Match and expressed his ambition to claim the World Heavyweight Championship title. Following the announcement, Zayn conversed with Rollins behind the scenes, expressing gratitude for their recent discussion and mentioning that it had made an impact on him.

Seth Rollins indicated it was past due for the authentic Sami Zayn to appear, and that’s when viewers spotted Karrion Kross observing their exchange. Given Kross’ history of swaying wrestlers towards villainous roles, he might play a part in what transpires subsequently.

After the latest happenings at WWE RAW, it’s been speculated that Seth Rollins might soon adopt a villainous role (heel). Some fans think his first target could be his friend Sami Zayn. In the show, Rollins emerged victorious against Drew McIntyre, but following the fight, McIntyre retaliated against Rollins in anger.

In the midst of confusion, Sami Zayn unintentionally struck Rollins with a Helluva Kick while trying to assist. The incident left Zayn looking regretful, and Rollins glared at him with intense anger. This accidental strike might serve as the catalyst for Rollins’ transformation into a villain, potentially making Zayn his first victim.
