WWE star Seth Freakin' Rollins appeared on Monday Night Raw last night, but rather than his typical live appearance, it was in the form of pre-taped interviews with commentator Corey Graves that reflected on his career. Turns out the reason he wasn’t at the Greensboro Coliseum in North Carolina was because he was in Atlanta on the set of Captain America: New World Order. Apparently he’s been cast in the upcoming Marvel movie, and not surprisingly, the role is already setting off rumors about what it could mean for Rollins’ chances at Night Of Champions in less than two weeks.
Let’s talk about the movie role first. The MCU casting has not been officially confirmed by Kevin Feige or anyone else over at Marvel, but photos and videos of the WWE star in costume on set started rolling around Twitter. Some are claiming, based on his look, that he’s playing a member of The Serpent Society, though that has not been confirmed either. Regardless, he’s very clearly on the set and in full costume contributing in a seemingly key way.
