WWE RAW star Seth Rollins hyped his return to the ring on social media today. The former World Heavyweight Champion has not been in action since WWE Money in the Bank 2024.
Seth Rollins took to his Instagram story to hype his return to the ring in nine days. The 38-year-old will be squaring off against The Judgment Day's Dominik Mysterio on the October 25 episode of WWE SmackDown or potentially in a dark match following the show.
In his message, Rollins noted that it would be his first match back, and you can check it out on Instagram by clicking here.
"First match back. Let's ride," he wrote.
Bronson Reed brutally attacked The Visionary on the August 5 edition of RAW and hit him with several Tsunami Splashes. Rollins returned during the Last Monster Standing Match between Bronson Reed and Braun Strowman on the September 30 episode of RAW.
Rollins hit Reed with a Stomp on the steel steps, allowing Strowman to pick up the victory. Unfortunately, The Monster of All Monsters also suffered a torn groin during the match.
Former WWE writer claims Seth Rollins thinks he is more popular than he is
Wrestling legend Vince Russo recently took a shot at Seth Rollins and the former champion's popularity in the WWE Universe.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Writing with Russo show, the legend claimed that Rollins was annoying to a lot of people due to his voice and the way he dresses on television. Russo suggested that the RAW star was full of himself and thought he was more popular than he was in reality.
"I think first of all it was new. That was like the first time he had done it. And, bro, I just gotta tell you, man, I think Seth Rollins is annoying to a lot of people. I just really do, bro. That voice and that twang, the way he dresses. He carries himself, whether he is or not in real life I don't know, I don't know the dude, but he kinda carries himself like he's full of himself and he thinks he's more over than he really is. There's a lot of reasons not to like Seth Rollins." [5:17 – 5:52]
