The Roman ruler hadn’t left the Barclays Center as he had arrived.
WWE Raw on August 4th kicked off with Seth Rollins celebrating his contentious World Heavyweight Championship win at SummerSlam. However, Rollins’ celebration was cut short when LA Knight made a surprising comeback to challenge him for the title. Rollins initially declined, but Adam Pearce officially made the match and barred Bronson Reed and Bron Blakeker from ringside.
The main event between Rollins and Knight was underway until CM Punk burst into the ring attacking the champion, causing a disqualification. Knight attempted to separate Punk, but the situation escalated further when Bron Blakeker suddenly appeared with a spear. Soon after, Bronson Reed joined, and the faction now known as Vision overwhelmed both Knight and Punk.
At that moment, the Roman ruler entered the ring and gained a brief upper hand before the numbers overwhelmed him. Reed delivered several tsunamis and even stole the ruler’s shoes, continuing a recent trend of targeting the tribal chief’s footwear.
The show concluded with Vision standing dominant in the ring. Meanwhile, LA Knight and CM Punk continued their heated argument as officials tried to break them apart. The Roman ruler refused to intervene, quietly retreating from the arena, tired and defeated.
Will the Roman ruler be avenged for the Vision’s assault and stolen sneakers, or is this the start of a far bigger conflict? Share your thoughts below.
