WWE Strips Seth Rollins Of World Heavyweight Title

Seth Rollins has been stripped of his WWE World Heavyweight Championship due to his shoulder injury. It was explained in kayfabe that The Vision’s attack on Rollins last week is why he is out injured, and he required surgery due to the attack, which forced WWE to vacate the title. A Battle Royal was held later that night to determine who would face CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event for the vacant title.
