Seth Rollins made a major statement during the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match contract signing last night on RAW for the Royal Rumble pay-per-view by curb stomping both John Cena and the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar.
It is being reported by F4WOnline that there’s apparently feeling within WWE that Brock Lesnar is leaving after WrestleMania 31 and probably going back to MMA. A 3-way bidding war is expected between WWE, UFC and Bellator.
WWE’s merchandise department has been told that there will be no more new Lesnar merchandise coming out and also was told if any merchandise was earmarked for Lesnar, to produce it for Sheamus now. This seems to indicate that a push is planned for Sheamus while they’re expecting Lesnar to leave.
