Last week, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins went to NXT Gold Rush to defend his workhorse title against Bron Breakker. The episode of the newly revamped brand got the best rating and it also attained record viewership.
As The Visionary’s entrance music got played, the fans started grooving to the music of the former Shield Member. However, Seth Rollins was not utterly fit following the damage done by Finn Balor at last week’s Monday Night RAW.
Nevertheless, she still fought and defended his title against the former NXT Champion Bron Breakker. Thus, after the show went off air, a clip of the Visionary talking to WWE Hall of Famer, Shawn Michaels was uploaded on the official account of NXT.
The Heart Break Kid and Seth Rollins were seen sharing moments of appreciation in the video. Michaels thanked The Visionary for coming to NXT and defending his championship. In addition to that, the two pro wrestling icons also hugged each other showing gratitude.
Everybody you meet plays a part in who you are. Some more than others…
Without Shawn, I never step foot in a wrestling ring. Probably never meet my wife. Never have my kid.
Reflecting on this moment, I feel immense gratitude across the board. We’re nothing but lucky to be… https://t.co/Qf7CZAEhWS

Thus, after some time, Seth Rollins credited Shawn Michaels for helping him make a career in pro wrestling. He also stated that without The ShowStopper, he would have never stepped in the ring.
“Everybody you meet plays a part in who you are. Some more than others. Without Shawn, I never step foot in a wrestling ring. Probably never meet my wife. Never have my kid. Reflecting on this moment, I feel immense gratitude across the board. We’re nothing but lucky to be experiencing life.”
Hence, it’s fair to say that Seth Rollins is among the most popular superstars in WWE currently. From his theme song to in-ring skills, he has mastered everything that is required to be a top star in the pro wrestling promotion. Consequently, when we won the WWE World Heavyweight Champion at the Night of Champions, the fans were full of contentment.
Seth Rollins will be facing Finn Balor at Money in the Bank
Seth Rollins has been defending his title almost every couple of weeks since he defeated AJ Styles for the championship. However, he posted an open challenge on his Twitter for his title as World Heavyweight Champion.
Thus, the first person to accept the open challenge was Damian Priest. However, Finn Balor came to help his stablemate in the title bout, but that ended up in the exact opposite manner.
Possible cracks in the heel stable were expected. Nevertheless, Finn Balor got a chance to challenge The Visionary at the upcoming Money in the Bank. Thus, before the premium live event, Balor has already started attacking Seth Rollins in regular WWE shows.
