Seth Rollins is now the center of attention at WWE SummerSlam 2024, not as a competing wrestler but as a special guest referee. CM Punk had no problem insulting Rollins on the kickoff show. It was crazy.
The original plane was for Punk and Rollins to fight each other at WrestleMania 40. But after Punk hurt his triceps during Royal Rumble, things changed. Triple H came out to announce that Punk would not be able to fight with Rollins in Philadelphia. This disappointed many fans including myself obviously. To give you a more vivid description of my response, I yelled "Fuck!!" when Triple H announced it.
Now, Punk is taking on Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam in Cleveland which is today if you're reading this blog today. This will be their first one-on-one match. Adding more drama to it all, Rollins will be there as a special guest referee. I believe this will bring some pretty serious tensions in the ring.
At the opening performance Monday Night Raw, the crowd crazily sang Rollin’s entrance song as usual. Once Rollins confronted Punk, Punk insulted him so hard I actually ended up feeling for bro, hahaha. The audience was crazy about it and that really set up things for the show. I am eager to see how Rollins will handle being a referee for the first time. The one thing you can bet on is that Rollins will look pretty fly with the black and white referee T-shirt.
The drama certainly doesn’t stop there. Recently, one of the top WWE stars has come out revealing that someone betrayed them behind their back adding more rumors around this match. The WWE Universe is going crazy and I’m right there with them, excited to see how it all turns out today.
I'll definitely keep you guys posted about the results but I'll bet my money on Drew McIntyre to win by a distraction from Seth Rollins which will create a whole new feud between Rollins and Punk. Let's see what happens.
