🔥 “Ruse of the Century!” Seth Rollins Stuns WWE Universe—Hall of Famer Calls It a “Pro Job”
Seth Rollins isn’t just playing the game—he’s rewriting the rulebook. Ever since shocking the world by pinning Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41, “The Visionary” has been cementing himself as WWE’s top villain. Aligning with Paul Heyman only turned the volume up, leading him to win the Money in the Bank briefcase and pull off a jaw-dropping cash-in at SummerSlam.
But the real masterstroke? The so-called “injury” that fooled everyone.
After reports claimed Rollins suffered a serious knee injury against LA Knight at Saturday Night’s Main Event—sidelining him for months — fans braced for a long absence. Then, in the ultimate heel move, Rollins walked back into the spotlight at SummerSlam, briefcase in hand, proving the whole thing was an elaborate ruse.
Even WWE Hall of Famer and multi-time World Champion Kevin Nash couldn’t help but applaud. Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, Nash called it pure genius:
“I thought he was hurt—maybe he still is. But when Heyman handed him the briefcase, he just destroyed Punk, curb-stomped him, 1-2-3… No fake kick-outs, no rookie mistakes. It was a pro job. Done perfectly.”
Rollins’ cash-in ended CM Punk’s fairytale—and first WWE World Title reign in 12 years—in just five minutes, right after Punk dethroned Gunther. Now, Rollins stands tall as World Heavyweight Champion, with rumors swirling that his reign could last until WrestleMania 42… where a blockbuster rematch with Roman Reigns might await.
One thing’s for sure: Seth Rollins just proved why he’s not only the ultimate heel but also the ultimate storyteller in WWE today.
