Seth Rollins is the only WWE star who made the curb stomp move famous. The Visionary used the move on multiple occasions to secure big victories in his career. The attacker at the San Diego show used Stomp to attack CM Punk, hinting that the Visionary could be the real person behind the black hoodie.

If the mystery attacker had used some other signature move, Rollins' name would surely have been out of the conversation, but the use of Stomp signals his potential involvement in this attack.

#4. Seth Rollins hates CM Punk and Roman Reigns

Seth Rollins' hatred towards CM Punk is evident. Rollins and Punk feuded for months after the return of the Best in the World in WWE. On the other side, the Visionary also has hostility towards his former Shield brother, Roman Reigns.

The fact that Reigns and Punk joined forces at Survivor Series 2025 might have triggered him, leading Seth to make his return and make them pay.

During RAW after Survivor Series 2025, Adam Pearce mentioned Seth Rollins in a backstage segment. Here, the RAW General Manager was with a referee and said he heard Rollins was without an arm sling at the San Diego show, but medical reports showed he is not cleared yet.

The mention of the former Vision leader's name could be a hint that he may be involved in the mystery attacker scenario and the real identity behind the hoodie.

In the post-show after Survivor Series and on RAW this week, Paul Heyman confirmed that he is unaware of the mystery attacker. The Oracle asserted that he had nothing to do with the black-hoodie guy.

In the latest episode of the red brand, Heyman and Breakker spoke with Adam Pearce and clearly denied their involvement in this case. This hints that Seth Rollins could be the mastermind behind the attack and was the mystery attacker at Survivor Series.

#1. WWE doesn’t have to reveal the same guy that was used at Survivor Series

It's crucial to note that WWE has yet to reveal the mystery guy from the recent Premium Live event. Usually, such mystery angles are uncovered in the aftermath episode, but the company not revealing it signals that it could be the Architect.

WWE might be waiting for Seth Rollins' medical clearance, and this could be why they don't have to use the same guy who was used at Survivor Series.
