Ups…

If you thought WrestleMania 37 (and their subsequent rematch on SmackDown) was going to be it for Cesaro and Seth Rollins, you were sadly mistaken.

Rollins, who has been in a weird alternate universe removed from the upper card for the better part of a year, showed up at the close of Backlash to attack a defeated Cesaro, signaling that their rivalry wasn’t over yet. In fact, it was Rollins who stood tall to close out the PPV despite not having a match on the show.

Rollins/Cesaro was a really solid match at Mania last month, so another PPV bout between the two could be a welcome addition to the card. And quite frankly, if neither man has anything better going on, wouldn’t it be better to just pit them against each other again and let things fly?
