WWE superstar Seth Freakin’ Rollins hopes to ‘create magic’ with Bray Wyatt again one day.
The former world champion – who first worked with Bray during infamous battles between The Shield and Wyatt Family – found himself across from the sinister star a number of times over the years, and he thinks they’ll be able to lock horns in the future amid rumours of a return for The Fiend.
Speaking exclusively to Metro.co.uk, he said: ‘I mean, I hope that’s not the last time him and I have been in a ring together, I truly do – and I don’t think it will be.
‘It really depends on a lot of external factors. At the end of the day, I would love to get back in there with him and create magic once again.’
Wyatt – real name Windham Rotunda – was shockingly released by WWE last summer and hasn’t been seen in the wrestling world since, although his friend and collaborator Jason Baker previously revealed they were working on his first feature film.
There are plenty of rumours about a comeback for the former Firefly Fun House host, and Rollins would be among those lining up to work with him.

‘We both had similar mindsets as far as always evolving our characters,’ the Visionary admitted, noting that the wrestling world sparks a ‘kinship’ between opponents.
He added: ‘Two completely different people outside of the business but there’s a kinship there when you share the ring with people that I think never really goes away.’
Both men have undergone plenty of character shifts over their respective careers, and Rollins suggested that came from a need to ‘constantly’ evolve to remain in prominent positions.
‘One thing he and I always had was a little bit of a chip on our shoulder as far as, we were never the guy. We were never a Cena, we were never a Roman and so we couldn’t be static,’ he explained.
‘We had to change, we had to evolve to be relevant constantly. There was always some sort of struggle, and there was a bond in that struggle that we always had – I think.
‘We go in separate directions and do different things, but at the end of the day, there’s always a connection there.’
On July 30, Rollins finds himself across the ring from Riddle in a highly anticipated grudge match, and he has opened up on what he wants to see from his opponent.
‘I wanna know who this guy is. I wanna know who is beyond being just Randy’s bro,’ he said. ‘He’s out here having to stand by himself, but he’s still out here doing Randy’s moves, doing Randy’s poses.
‘I’d like to know, who is Riddle? Who is this Original Bro? I’d love to see something original about him.’
