Seth Rollins is now owed a favor from Paul Heyman after sparing him from a stomp on WWE Raw.

In the closing segment, Heyman stood in the ring and started by stating that he will always be loyal to his Tribal Chief Roman Reigns and he will always be loyal to his best friend CM Punk.

Heyman was interrupted by Rollins, who asked Heyman whose side he was on. Rollins said that Reigns doesn't care or respect Heyman, reminding Heyman that Reigns disappeared after WrestleMania XL and left Heyman in the hands of Solo Sikoa. Rollins asked Heyman if Reigns came to rescue him. Heyman shook his head no.

"No, he left you to get massacred in your hometown in front of your children," said Rollins.

Rollins said that Punk wasn't there to rescue Heyman either, saying Punk walked out of WWE ten years ago, including walking out on Heyman. Rollins said Punk didn't return and embrace Heyman, and reminded Heyman that he, not Punk, was the first choice to be on team Roman for WarGames.

"Did he join Team Roman out of the goodness of his heart because he loves his best friend Paul Heyman? No, he did it because he could use it to get a favor out of you," said Rollins.

Rollins suggested that Heyman remove himself from the situation so he, Roman, and Punk could battle at WrestleMania for the soul of the industry. Heyman said he couldn't do that. Rollins floated the idea of removing Heyman from the situation, and that he would take it as a privilege to remove Heyman.

Rollins began bullying Heyman, wondering how much he was worth in an effort to bait Punk to the ring. Heyman stood up for himself, but Rollins pushed him into the corner before Punk made his way to the ring.

Rollins and Punk brawled around the ring before Rollins got the upper hand with a stomp.

As Heyman checked on Punk, Rollins stopped short of stomping Heyman, saying that now, Heyman owes him a favor.

Heyman is set to corner Punk against Reigns and Rollins in a triple threat match at WrestleMania 41. The match will headline night one of WrestleMania.
