WWE has given modern wrestlers the chance to grow massive fan bases and strong social media followings. Many of these superstars use their platforms to discuss causes they care about. Recently, Seth Rollins did just that while in Italy. During a visit to Bologna for a SmackDown episode, Rollins shared an Instagram story showing “Free Palestine” graffiti on the city’s streets. WWE typically discourages wrestlers from making political statements, especially on sensitive topics like this. Sami Zayn, another wrestler who supports Palestine, has also been cautious, only hinting at his views.
Bologna was a busy stop for Rollins, as he faced off with two major rivals on SmackDown. Roman Reigns, accompanied by Paul Heyman, kicked off the segment by addressing how Rollins and CM Punk had cost him at the Royal Rumble. Reigns explained that his interference in their steel cage match at Madison Square Garden was payback. This set the stage for a heated confrontation.
Rollins entered the scene and called CM Punk a “cancer” to WWE. However, he emphasized that the real issue was between him and Reigns. The two former Shield members have a long history together, and Rollins made it clear that their rivalry was far from over. Their connection, both as allies and enemies, has been a central theme in their careers.
The tension escalated when CM Punk joined the fray, hurling insults at both Rollins and Reigns. The verbal sparring quickly turned physical, leading to a chaotic brawl that ended the show. WWE later announced that the three would face off in a triple-threat match at WrestleMania 41, setting the stage for a major showdown.

Rollins shared details about Lynch’s upcoming roles. She is currently filming Happy Gilmore 2, which also stars AEW’s MJF. Additionally, she has been cast in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, a series set to premiere on Paramount+. These projects highlight her growing presence in the acting world.
I don’t think we’ve seen the last of her in a WWE ring, but when the timing is right, she’ll be back.
