Surprise on Raw: The End of Seth Rollins’ Vision
Friday night on “Raw” brought an unexpected turn that shook the foundations of WWE. After weeks of speculation and doubts about Seth Rollins’ future, the situation took a radical turn.
Rollins, after defending his position against Cody Rhodes, suffered the consequences immediately. Bron Breakker, with a shocking intervention, marked the end of the alliance known as “The Vision”.
This change was even more surprising considering that Rollins had started “Raw” by praising Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman. The unexpected breakup dominated an episode full of surprises, including Dominik Mysterio’s cunning to retain his Intercontinental title, the tense relationship between Asuka and Kairi Sane, and Lyra Valkyria’s possible understanding of Bayley.
“Raw” Results from October 13th
- Dominik Mysterio (c) defeated Penta by pinfall.
- Rhea Ripley defeated Kairi Sane by pinfall.
- Bronson Reed defeated Jimmy Uso by pinfall.
- Bayley and Lyra Valkyria defeated Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez by pinfall.
- CM Punk defeated LA Knight and Jey Uso.
The Anticipated End of the Vision
Rollins kicked off the program with a promo where he celebrated Breakker, Reed, and Heyman. However, the absence of Heyman’s ultimatum prior to Crown Jewel, in case Rollins lost, was evident. Subsequently, Rollins reaffirmed his confidence, which earned him an attack that left him vulnerable.
The dissolution of “The Vision” came as a surprise, especially after CM Punk positioned himself as the number one contender to Rollins’ title after winning in a triple threat match. Heyman, upon raising the arms of Reed and Breakker after the attack, seemed to leave Rollins alone. With enemies on all sides, the situation becomes dangerous for Rollins and his aspirations as World Heavyweight Champion.
The timing of this attack raises questions. Breakker is seen as a future world champion and Reed has achieved important victories. Could this rivalry be a strategic move in the Punk vs. Rollins saga? Could the “Brons” cost Rollins his title and then face each other?
Other Highlights from “Raw”
- Dominik Mysterio continues to defend his Intercontinental Championship with cunning tactics. Against Penta, he distracted the timekeeper to steal the hammer, then used it to hit Penta and retain his title.
- The tension between The Kabuki Warriors is palpable. Asuka and Kairi Sane showed disagreement, but ended up united after Sane’s match with Rhea Ripley. Could they team up with other female wrestlers for Survivor Series: WarGames?
- In a 48-hour span, Reed and Ripley achieved a 4-0 record in front of the home crowd.
- Bayley seems to have a double face. Lyra Valkyria needed the “vicious” version of Bayley to get the victory.
