10 Wrestlers Who Should Join The Undisputed Era
5. Seth Rollins
WWE are teasing a slow burn heel turn from Seth right now. He's not fully committed to the bit yet and a major swerve as an agent of the Undisputed Era would add an interesting layer to his character. Similar to CM Punk being revealed as the man bankrolling The Shield way back when, Rollins being outed as the true mastermind behind UE would be a neat little twist.
This obviously opens up a lot of questions. Namely, why did Seth and Adam have a match on RAW if they're in cahoots? But how many times have we seen this happen? Secret leaders coming to blows with their group before the big reveal is par for the course (exhibit A: Bully Ray with Aces & Eights). Seth is an ROH legend and Adam Cole was his successor in many ways. It isn't too far fetched to think 'The Architect' took the NXT Champion under his wing.
There would have to be reasoning and logic behind this and it's actually quite simple. Undisputed Era have ruled NXT with an iron fist for a while now and seem to think they run the place. Who actually runs the place? Triple H, Seth's mentor and frenemy. Turns out Rollins has been pulling the strings all along to chip away at Hunter's control of NXT, only to swoop in at the opportune moment for a hostile takeover. At that point, a UE face turn is the way to go, leading to a power struggle angle between Rollins and Cole. There's no way two egos of that size could co-exist for too long.
Something like this could potentially save Seth's character and make UE feel like a huge deal in the process.
