Seth Rollins’ return to Monday Night RAW has brought a lot of excitement among fans. Though The Visionary has some unfinished business with Bronson Reed for now, the WWE Universe has been anticipating a match between Rollins and CM Punk, reportedly at WrestleMania 41.
While a match between both men has already been teased, WrestleMania is a long road for now and WWE needs to build things up at a decent pace to keep fans excited.
During a recent episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray questioned if WWE could hold off a potential Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk match until WrestleMania 41. The 53-year-old veteran stated that he wanted the match to take place at The Grandest Stage of Them All next year.
“The question that I have coming out of that face-to-face and that moment in time is can they hold off Seth and Punk until WrestleMania? Because that’s the match I want. I want Seth and Punk at WrestleMania,” Bully Ray said. [5:44 – 6:04]

The WWE legend further added that the animosity between Rollins and Punk that was felt at Survivor Series: WarGames 2023 has now faded away. With that being said, he stated that the company would have to build that heat back up if they wanted to keep fans excited for a match between both men.
“The animosity has kind of died. Last night in the face-to-face, I felt a little bit of it, but not what it was. So, I’m wondering if they can get back to that. Can they push the buttons again? Can they revisit the same verbiage, the same language? Can they go back in time? I’m wondering if they can get back to that. If they can get back to that, I’m on board. If not, I’m not so sure,” Bully Ray said. [7:55 – 8:46]

What’s in store for Seth Rollins following his WWE return?
While CM Punk is off for a break after a grueling Hell in a Cell match against Drew McIntyre at WWE Bad Blood 2024, Seth Rollins clearly has his sights set on his target. The Visionary was taken out by Bronson Reed in an ambush a couple of months ago.
Since then, Rollins has been waiting to get his hands on the 36-year-old star. During this week’s episode of RAW, the former World Heavyweight Champion called out Reed and challenged him for a match at any point in time.
With that being said, fans will now have to wait and see what happens when both Reed and Rollins come face-to-face in the future.
