He won the scheduled fatal-5-way contest on WWE Raw to earn the rights to be in the number one contender’s match. It had the likes of Booby Roode, Nakamura, Ricochet, AJ Styles and Mysterio competing in it which saw the first elimination of Ricochet after Nakamura delivered a Kinshasa on him. AJ eliminated Nakamura with a Phenomenal Forearm but Roode caught him with a Glorious DDT from the back for the third elimination. Lastly, it was Rey Mysterio who eliminated Roode with a 619-splash combo off the top rope. The Master of 619 promised to beat Seth Rollins and go on to Hell in a Cell to face The Fiend Bray Wyatt!

Before this, Seth Rollins had a successful title defense at Clash of Champions with monster challenging him for the Universal Championship. For the first time, Braun Strowman challenged him in a title match while defending the tag team titles alongside him. In the end, it was Rollins who stood tall becoming the Monster-Slayer. Four Curb Stomps were enough to keep Strowman down or good.

Following this, The Fiend Bray Wyatt targeted Seth Rollins to receive a title match at Hell in a Cell. The job for the champion got even bigger as the match will take place inside the Cell structure. But WWE.com added another task for Rollins as he’d have to defend the title against a new number of one contender for WWE Raw season premiere,

“The season premiere of Raw kicks off next week with a Universal Title Match between Seth Rollins and the winner of the Fatal 5-Way Match that will take place this Monday night on Raw! Rey Mysterio, Ricochet, AJ Styles, Robert Roode, and Shinsuke Nakamura will collide with each eyeing the opportunity to clash with Rollins for the top prize on Raw. Which Superstar will prevail in the always unpredictable climate that is a Fatal 5-Way Match to advance on to a chance to capture the Universal Title next week on the season premiere of Raw?”

Finally, it was Rey Mysterio who stood tall by the end of the contest to get a WWE Championship shot after a long time. This is a dream match that will surely be a special attraction for next week’s episode of WWE Raw i.e. the season premiere on the USA Network.
