WWE Raw: 3 reasons why Seth Rollins qualified for the Money in the Bank match

The latest episode of WWE Raw saw Seth Rollins take on Finn Balor and Sami Zayn in a triple-threat match to determine the next person to qualify for the Money in the Bank match at the Premium Live Event of the same name. The three stars exceeded expectations and left the audience asking for more. Sami and ‘The Price’ came within touching distance of securing a win at several points but could not get the job done. It was ultimately Seth Rollins who outsmarted his foe to pick up the win. Here’s why Triple H, who heads the creative team, decided to have ‘The Visionary’ go over in the high-stakes contest.?

Seth Rollins needed the win to cement his faction’s standing

Seth Rollins’ association with Paul Heyman has essentially established him as the top heel on Raw. The alliance, which also includes Bronson Reed, recently received a boost when Bronson Reed joined forces with the veteran manager.?

?The powerhouse helped the former Shield member and ‘The Badass’ beat CM Punk and Sami Zayn at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Seth Rollins’ big win tonight played a prominent role in helping the fast-rising faction retain its momentum. The group would have lost its mojo had ‘The Architect’ failed to beat Finn Balor and Sami Zayn on the red brand.?

It furthered the tensions between Finn Balor and Dominik Mysterio

The closing moments of the contest saw Dominik Mysterio push a chair towards his The Judgement Day stablemate. However, he did a poor job of it, and Finn had to crawl towards the chair to pick it up. This gave Seth Rollins the opportunity to nail the Irish star with a curb-stomp and get the win. The finish essentially widened the rift between The Judgement Day while helping Rollins potentially re-enter the World Heavyweight title picture.?

Sami Zayn was protected

The finish did a good job of protecting Sami Zayn, who has been receiving a mini-push of late. The Canadian star did not get pinned, which prevented him from being buried. Additionally, it it furthered his tensions with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, indicating that he will be a thorn in the side of the heels going forward. Additionally, it also furthered his friendship with Jey Uso as the ‘Yeet Master’ came to his rescue when he got outnumbered.
