Seth Rollins captured the World Heavyweight Championship for the second time at SummerSlam 2025 when he cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk, minutes after Punk had dethroned Gunther in an instant classic. Since then, The Visionary has been putting together another entertaining run during his second reign as World Heavyweight Champion, which included him defeating Punk, LA Knight, and Jey Uso in a fatal four-way match with the help of his wife, Becky Lynch.
It has been a fun run so far for Rollins, who is steadily building his heel persona since aligning with Paul Heyman at WrestleMania 41, earlier this year. However, all good things have to come to an end eventually, and we have tasked AI with predicting what will happen between now and then with Rollins’ run as World Heavyweight Champion.
The Rise Of The Vision & AJ Lee’s Return
- AJ Lee is set to return to WWE
- The Vision are going to compete inside WarGames
- LA Knight might earn a title match
According to AI, Rollins’ next couple of major tests will be more emotionally draining rather than focused on the defense of his World title. That’s because ChatGPT predicted that he would team with Lynch to face Punk and a returning AJ Lee at Wrestlepalooza, in a match that is now widely expected to happen. Lee’s return will be a huge deal, whether it’s for a one-off or a significant run, and it will only further exacerbate the ultra-personal nature of Rollins’ storyline with Punk.
Rollins will also defend the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE’s Crown Jewel Premium Live Event in Australia, with LA Knight slated to be his opponent. This will play into the fact that Knight previously defeated Rollins in singles action before The Visionary captured the World Title and only lost his his one-on-one bout for the title due to CM Punk’s interference. However it will be The Vision leader who retains the gold down under.
Rollins’ issues with Punk are going to be at the heart of the entire title run, as they’re next going to collide inside WarGames. This is where The Vision’s dominance will take place, as AI predicts that they will defeat the team of Punk, Lee, Jey Uso, and LA Knight. This will allow Rollins’ arrogance to reach a pinnacle, which is where his rivalry with Punk will finally boil over.
Seth Rollins Loses The World Heavyweight Championship At The Royal Rumble
- CM Punk is expected to dethrone Rollins
- They will end their rivalry inside a steel cage
- Punk and Rollins have feuded against each other for a long time
AI has predicted that Punk will be the man to dethrone Rollins in the end, getting revenge on him for his Money in the Bank cash-in, and eventually winning their lengthy feud. The two men have been trading shots at each other from the moment Punk returned to WWE due to their real-life animosity, and that is going to take center stage at next year’s Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia, where they will compete in a major singles match for the World Heavyweight Championship.
AI believes this will end up being contested inside a steel cage, and that would make sense. Given how The Vision has been so involved in everything Rollins has done since WrestleMania 41, having them banned from getting involved would give Punk a level playing field to try and defeat him.
It does feel like making the pair’s finale a cage match is ChatGPT missing a trick, given that Rollins and Punk already fought inside a steel cage on Raw prior to WrestleMania 41. Perhaps Hell In A Cell would be more fitting? Ending the storyline at the Royal Rumble also makes sense, as it allows something fresh to be done with both men heading into the Grandest Stage Of Them All, and AI has an idea to wrap up Rollins’s year from when he initially teamed with Paul Heyman.
Seth Rollins’ Ultimate Test Is Against Roman Reigns
- Reigns and Rollins have a lot of history together
- A major WrestleMania 42 match has been predicted between them
- Reigns will look to get revenge on Rollins
Rollins’ final test will be against his former friend and Shield stablemate, Roman Reigns. The Original Tribal Chief has been looking to get his hands on Rollins since joining forces with Heyman, and AI predicts that WWE will hold off on it for an entire year. That is because Reigns is expected to attack Rollins straight after he loses his title to capitalize on his misery.
That will then set up a massive storyline for WrestleMania 42, allowing Reigns and Rollins to finally have a singles match at the biggest event of the year. Given all the animosity surrounding the two of them, dating back to Rollins stabbing the OTC in the back when they were in The Shield together and everything that’s happened since, there’s no shortage of emotion involved in this.
Fans will be chomping at the bit to see the former friends and stablemates go at it, and AI believes that Reigns will get the win to end that storyline as well. This is where Rollins will kick Bron Breakker out of The Vision, setting up a babyface push for the young Steiner and a major storyline for them both moving forward.
AI has certainly put together an interesting run for Rollins between now and WrestleMania 42, and while not every detail will be right, the majority of it does seem plausible. Significant matches against Reigns and Punk are bound to happen eventually due to the storylines that have been told, while a WarGames encounter also feels inevitable. Regardless of what happens, there’s no doubt Rollins will sink his teeth into it as he always does to make it work and feel as entertaining as possible.
