It’s incredible to think how much Seth Rollins is entertaining us ever since the Wrestlemania season. With Brock Lesnar being absent and Roman Reigns not getting over with the crowd, no one but Seth has the responsibility to deliver, each night.
Needless to say, on a weekly basis, he continues to give us even more. No wonder, he is called The Architect of the WWE.
In the past few weeks, Seth Rollins has been going through a tremendous schedule. At the Greatest Royal Rumble, he successfully defended the Intercontinental Championship against three elite superstars from WWE Raw. Finn Balor, Samoa Joe, and The Miz were his scheduled opponents in a ladder match in Saudi Arabia.
Within just three days of time, he delivered yet another A-star rated match against Finn Balor. Defeating the first-ever Universal Champion, he retained his title. On this past Sunday night, the Shield-member competed in the ‘match of the year’ candidate against the Miz. Needless He toppled the resistance provided by the A-lister.

But, there’s no stop for him on last night’s WWE Raw. He loves nothing but to wrestle inside the ring. So, without any confirmed opponent, he reissued the Intercontinental Championship open challenge. It is a certain way to make the mid-card title prestigious. Previously, John Cena has done it with the US title, as well.
The hometown lad, Mojo Rawley answered to it to receive some cheers from the crowd. It was the debut night for the former Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner on WWE Raw.
Now, who can be a better test for him other than the benchmark player, Seth Rollins?
The contest turned out to be a heated one with Rawley nearly picking up the win with a spinebuster. But, Rollins countered the move delivering a superkick, later. While going for the Curb Stomp, Rawley hit him with a HyperDrive. But, the champ hit a trifecta of moves to pick up the win.

He hit the superkick, Ripcord knee, and the Curb Stomp to emerge victoriously and retain his Intercontinental title. It was a solid back and forth going on the flagship show, last night.
The crowd loved to see it and hopes to see the open challenge on a weekly basis, as per the social media.
