Seth Rollins beat AJ Styles to win the WWE World Heavyweight Title tournament finals this past Saturday at Night of Champions. At this same show, Brock Lesnar beat Cody Rhodes, to tie their rivalry at 1-1, with each star holding a win over each other.
On Monday’s Raw, Rhodes cut a promo, challenging Lesnar to a third match. Rollins & Styles defeated Damian Priest & Finn Balor on this same show in the main event.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted WWE is not planning to have Lesnar feud with Rollins once he’s done with his program with Rhodes.
“So they are doing another match [Lesnar and Rhodes]. I don’t know if it’s gonna be in London or it’ll be in Detroit, but they are definitely doing another match. And I did check and there is nothing in the cards right now for Lesnar with Seth Rollins. It’s not. I mean, they could do it later, but it’s nothing that’s in the plans right now. It’s just Lesnar with Cody. I don’t know how Seth wrestles. I thought maybe we would find out. I thought maybe it’d be like Damien Priest, but then, by the end of the show tonight, it was….when that thing was over, it’s like, I don’t think they’re gonna go to Seth and Damian Priest because if they did, all I would say is what a stupid finish they did,” Meltzer.
