Someone may need to check on the status of Seth Rollins and his intestines. Oh wait, someone did: the local hospital in Baltimore on Monday night. It was clearly needed after taking a total of six Tsunamis from Bronson Reed, to the point of spitting up blood in the ring, in an unexpected attack during a WWE RAW promo with CM Punk and Drew McIntyre.
Reed warned general manager Adam Pearce earlier in the show that he’d grown tired of waiting for his turn at a title reign, and then went on to take matters into his own hands.

In an interview backstage, Reed would further explain the reason he chose to pulverize The Visionary.

“I’ve been telling the whole world I’m one of the best in this business, week after week, and it’s falling onto deaf ears,” said Reed. “So, tonight, I did what I had to do. I crushed one of WWE’s golden boys. I hit Tsunami after Tsunami after Tsunami after Tsunami on Seth Rollins, to show you all I’m not here to play around. The killer is unleashed.
“And Bronson Reed is at the very top of this business.”
Pearce was nowhere to be found during the attack, reappearing only after it was over to give an update on Rollins and a potential punishment to Reed, but the latter may not happen at all if Paul “Triple H” Levesque has a say in the matter and, as head of creative, he has the say in the matter.

“If you’re going to make an impression, make it last forever,” said Levesque.
Reed has been a solid midcard talent for quite some time now, but never over enough to challenge for big gold in the WWE, though there are titles that would suit him — one of which being the United States Championship recently acquired by LA Knight (good luck taking that from him) and the Intercontinental Championship recently acquired by Bron Breakker (goooood luck taking that from him).
Having seen Breakker’s rampage pay off with a belt, Reed is calling the same play.
