Ten years after their first meeting during Seth Rollins’ extended WWE Championship reign, a significant rivalry is poised to intensify once again. The current Seth Rollins WWE feud is gaining momentum as Rollins leads the faction known as The Vision, which includes rising stars Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, with Paul Heyman serving as their strategic advisor.
A decade ago, Paul Heyman was best known as Brock Lesnar’s advocate, but their relationship evolved when Heyman later sided with Roman Reigns. Despite that shift, they appeared to reconcile recently with an on-screen tease on SmackDown followed by a reunion at Wrestlepalooza. This rekindling opens several promising storylines for WWE moving forward.
Perspectives on Potential Matchups Involving Brock Lesnar and Bron Breakker
One of the most anticipated bouts is Brock Lesnar versus Bron Breakker, a clash that promises excitement but may be premature according to wrestling veteran Dutch Mantell. Speaking on Story Time with Dutch Mantell, he expressed reservations about Breakker facing Lesnar so soon, suggesting the younger talent needs more time to develop before such a high-profile match.
Instead, Mantell sees Seth Rollins as a more fitting adversary for Lesnar at this point in their careers. While Rollins is currently portraying a heel character, Mantell believes he would take on a babyface role against Lesnar, making for a compelling dynamic that WWE could immediately capitalize on, despite some uncertainty about its long-term appeal.
I don’t think it’s time for [Bron Breakker] yet. I think Seth [Rollins] and Brock [Lesnar] would do well. I don’t know how well it would do over a period of time. And even though [Seth] is a heel– think he’d be a babyface in that one. And he would fit it,” Dutch Mantell said.
The history between Rollins and Lesnar adds weight to this suggestion, as they previously engaged in a major feud during 2019 when Rollins won the Royal Rumble and defeated Lesnar at WrestleMania 35 to claim the WWE Universal Championship. Their rivalry dates back even earlier to 2015 when Rollins was WWE World Champion.
Possible Rocky Face-Off Between Brock Lesnar and Gunther Could Excite Fans
With Brock Lesnar’s recent return, Dutch Mantell highlighted another clash that WWE should prioritize: a match between Lesnar and Gunther, the reigning World Heavyweight Championship contender dubbed The Ring General. Mantell described this potential encounter as immediately appealing, sharing the enthusiasm many fans feel about seeing Lesnar face Gunther in the ring.
I would be interested in seeing Gunther and Lesnar. How’s that sound? It sounds good right off the bat. I think that might work,” Mantell said.
Gunther was most recently seen at SummerSlam in August, where he lost the World Heavyweight title to CM Punk during the main event of Night 1. Soon after, Punk relinquished the belt to Seth Rollins, who successfully cashed in his Money in the Bank contract, further connecting these intertwined storylines.
This developing Seth Rollins WWE feud and the renewed possibilities with Brock Lesnar and Gunther are set to shape upcoming WWE programming, offering viewers intense rivalries filled with high stakes and dramatic shifts. As these storylines unfold, fans can expect a deepening of existing conflicts and fresh contests that will influence the landscape of WWE championships in the near future.
