24 hours after earning his spot at WrestleMania 35, Seth Rollins cleared one of the few obstacles on his way in defeating his longtime rival Dean Ambrose.
Seth Rollins started off the show to celebrate his victory in the Royal Rumble match, acknowledging that he always wanted to point at the WrestleMania sign. He thanked the crowd for their support and felt that it was going to be a tough decision on who he wanted to face in the main event. As he suggested that he should take some time choosing between Brock Lesnar and Daniel Bryan, Triple H came out to the ring.

The WWE COO proposed that Rollins would have to make his decision tonight, as both the WWE Champion and Universal Champion will be present. Rollins will have until the end of the night to make his choice, but that didn’t stop Dean Ambrose from interrupting and causing a ruckus. Ambrose was frustrated at Rollins sucking up to Triple H and demanded a match against “The Kingslayer” as Ambrose believes he couldn’t defeat him one-on-one. Ambrose would even provoke Triple H into sanctioning the match.

The back-and-forth battle between to two former Shield mates would be intense, but it was Rollins that gutted through with a vicious Curb Stomp combo.
