10 Big Talking Points From WWE Raw (July 11)
7. Ambrose, Rollins... And Reigns
Roman Reigns may be suspended, but the top of the 9:00 hour still belongs to "The Guy." Seth Rollins promised that he had exclusive footage of the former WWE Champion to share with the WWE Universe, and he did just that in the first episode of The Rollins Report.
What we got was a sit-down interview featuring Rollins asking questions and Reigns answering - via clipped out footage from old interviews. It's annoying to see Reigns still featured so prominently while out suspended, but this was admittedly entertaining, from the graphic declaring him a "Three-Time WWE Champion*" to Rollins deadpanning "You really are a monster, aren't you?"
After the video, things picked up when WWE Champion Dean Ambrose confronted Rollins. He started by congratulating "The Architect" for actually having some fun, but ended up cutting an impassioned promo about all he had sacrificed to become champion and how Rollins's entitled attitude sickened him. Both men were gold here.
The final result was that a one-on-one title match made for next week's Raw, which should be great... though it's hard not to think that Rollins is right, and that should be the Battleground main event.
