After a major heel turn on WWE RAW, it appears like Seth Rollins’ next opponent for the World Heavyweight Championship has been decided.
Shinsuke Nakamura, Cody Rhodes, and Seth Rollins defeated The Judgment Day’s Damian Preist, Dominik Mysterio, and Finn Balor in the main event after Cody pinned Balor.
The difficulties between Damian Priest and Finn Balor were highlighted during the match and earlier in the event, but the key thing that happened after the match was, when the babyfaces were celebrating their victory, Nakamura surprised Rollins with a head kick and then walked away.
This strongly suggests that Nakamura will be challenging for the World Heavyweight Title at Payback in Pittsburgh, where the next installment of the WWE’s flagship event will take place. Click here for complete WWE RAW results.
