Seth Rollins spoke on the Backlash post-show and dropped a major bombshell.

Seth Rollins faced Bron Breakker at Backlash in a match that was made to settle scores between the two in a feud that began after Crown Jewel 2025 in October last year.

The Vision faction, which Seth Rollins created when he shockingly aligned with Paul Heyman after WrestleMania 41, had Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed added by Rollins. The heel faction was the highlight of Raw throughout 2025, but after Crown Jewel 2025, Breakker speared Rollins out of nowhere to oust him from the faction and declare himself as its new leader. This was done to write Rollins off TV as he suffered a shoulder injury during his match against Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel.

Paul Heyman, who manages the faction, later recruited Austin Theory and Logan Paul, who make up the current lineup.

Breakker and Reed both suffered injuries ahead of WrestleMania 42, so a planned match between Breakker and Rollins couldn’t happen. Instead, a couple of weeks before this year’s ‘Mania, Gunther came to the aid of Paul Heyman when Seth Rollins was attacking him, and a match between the Ring General and The Architect was made official.

Towards the end of their match at ‘Mania, Bron Breakker returned to spear Rollins in half and finally began the feud that had been put off for some time due to injuries.

The two feuded until Backlash and Bron Breakker won the match, which came as a heartbreak to Seth Rollins’ fans.

Seth Rollins Makes Major Announcement In WWE Backlash Post-Show

Fans would be happy to hear that Seth Rollins is not done feuding with The Vision and Bron Breakker and swore to destroy the Vision faction during his Backlash post-show interview. He even talked about wanting his World Heavyweight Title back, a title he never lost in the first place.

I said day one when I came back, I had two missions. One, to win back the Heavyweight Championship I never lost, and two, to destroy The Vision. And I cannot get to the world title without destroying The Vision — that is priority one. So, I’m going back to the lab.

The Architect then went on to say that he is going to retool and redesign who he is and bring forth his best version.

I will retool, redesign, refigure out who this Seth Rollins is, what the best freaking version of Seth Freakin’ Rollins is. And I ain’t done with The Vision, not by a longshot. Not by a longshot. And then, I’m gonna go down and get that title back.

In a recent episode of Raw, Rollins and the World Heavyweight Champion, Roman Reigns, had a momentary stare-down in Gorilla Position as Rollins was set to enter for a promo. That tease could mean that the two might square off for the World Title at some point in the future.
