WWE Raw Results returned as Austin Theory came out and wasted no time in running Seth Rollins down after his win over him last week, and he mocked the fans when they chanted “We want Rollins!”
As soon as Austin added “freaking” between his names, Rollins came out on crutches.
With each step to the ring, he tossed away the crutches until he had one and strutted his way into the ring.

Theory ran him down again for faking having a hurt leg, but he gave props to Rollins as one of the best ever, but he is the best and he’ll win the Royal Rumble and leave WrestleMania as the WWE universal Champion and United States Champion.
Rollins said his knee isn’t 100%, but it will be by the Royal Rumble so he can main event WrestleMania, and that he only came out to hear the fans sing his song and told Theory he’ll see him at the rumble.

As Rollins was leaving, Bobby Lashley came out in his return, and when he entered the ring he ducked a swing of the crutch Rollins left behind by Theory, then nailed him with a spear before throwing him to the floor.
Lashley announced his suspension’s over and he can’t wait to manhandle everyone in the Rumble.
