*Seth Rollins to the ring…had one of the best matches of his career last week…what happened to Edge was unfortunate, but what did you think was going to happen?!…Seth used a legal move in a sanctioned match, so if you’re looking for someone to blame, blame Edge & blame the Universe…but Seth’s not done with Edge until he “finishes” him.
