WrestleMania Night 1 main event heats up
The main event of Night 1 of WrestleMania kicked into full gear on the 8 April edition of Monday night Raw as Seth Rollins had a heated confrontation with CM Punk and Paul Heyman.
On Friday's Smackdown, CM Punk revealed to Roman Reigns that the favour he was owed would see Paul Heyman leave Roman's side to join CM Punk for their Wrestlemania triple threat match, much to Roman's shock.
On Raw, Seth Rollins confronted Paul Heyman, making the case that Heyman's attempt to keep both CM Punk and Roman Reigns happy was a fool's errand. He made a compelling case explaining that Roman did not care about Heyman beyond seeing him as a useful tool. He accused Punk of doing the same.

Seth ultimately reached the conclusion that it would be best for Heyman if he did not appear at Wrestlemania at all, and started physically assaulting him until Punk arrived at the last minute to save his best friend.
However, Seth got the better of him and stomped his head onto the mat, leaving Punk lying. He appeared to attempt to stomp Heyman, but stopped at the last minute, proclaiming that Heyman now owes Seth a favour.
After Seth's brilliant manipulative tactics, will Heyman's true loyalties be tested at Wrestlemania? Who will he side with? Next week will see Roman return to Raw, after being betrayed, providing more clarity on the situation.
WWE can now be streamed on Netflix.
