There is no rest for the weary and
as we have this influx of incredible
talent from Smackdown to raw, I asked who.
>> [APPLAUSE] [SOUND].
>> Put your hands up.
>> It didn't take long >> One answer it is,
the visionary himself.
>> Pressure out of a glueing Hell in a Cell
match at [INAUDIBLE] Georges days ago.
Welcome back to Monday night Raw Mr. Rollins.
>> Look here, I have had a long week >> I went through hell on Thursday,
and for the past year on SmackDown I have earned my stripes, but guess what?
The Universal Champion is too afraid to give me my opportunity.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> So
here I am asking you, do you wanna be like Roman Reigns?
Or do you want to be a fighting champion?
Come on, he is the season premiere Monday Night Raw.
What better way to start it off than Big E versus
Seth freaking Rollins for that day WWE Championship,
come on think about it think of it, come on think about it.
[MUSIC].
>> Wait a second I think someone else is interested in this championship picture.
>> And the roof just came off the Toyota Center.
>> Hey, Seth, Seth,
killing me homie.
Clearly, your vision is impaired after getting your head bashed in by Edge.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Now,
it has been a minute since me and you have seen eye to eye.
>> [APPLAUSE].
>> But if anyone out here deserves a WWE Championship match, it's me.
I am willing to do whatever it takes to
win that championship one more time.
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Don't listen to him, no, no, no.
>> We are getting crowded in the ring, here in Houston.
Another new addition to Monday Night Raw.
Finn Balor.
>> Hey, Rey, Rey.
Hey Rey, man I got nothing but love for you.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> But with all due respect.
I am a two time NXT Champion.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> I
am a two time Intercontinental Champion.
>> [APPLAUSE] And Seth,
I was the first ever Universal Champion.
>> [NOISE] >> But
there's one Championship that I've never held.
>> [NOISE] >> And now that I'm
here on RAW I want that the WWE Championship.
>> Hey, hey not listen to either win please understand that I'm
easily the most qualified to this please.
>> [APPLAUSE] [NOISE].
>> Too much talent for one ring tonight's.
Big E is a popular individual tonight it's
Kevin Owens back on Monday night >> I became
Universal Champion in this building.
>> [NOISE].
>> And correct me if I'm wrong, but the person I've been for
that title, was you Cruella De Vil.
>> [NOISE] >> You remember,
you were laying right here, right where E's, your head was where E's feet are.
Your feet were right about what race speed and-
>> Rollins is heard enough.
>> He's tired of the insult, Seth Rollins going back and looks like everyone.
>> It was a matter of time and all these combustible elements.
>> Looking for a stunner, Seth Rollins out of the way.
>> A lot of history between all of these athletes and
they all have one thing in common, they want Big E's WWE Championship.
