As many of you saw tonight, Seth Rollins defeated Shinsuke Nakamura to retain the World Heavyweight Championship as The Great Muta looked on from his front row seat.

Going into the match, the big story was that Rollins has been dealing with a bad back for years and he doesn't know how much longer he will be able to keep up this pace. After the show went off the air, Nakamura attacked Rollins.

It's pretty clear that Nakamura vs. Rollins will happen again and likely at next month's Fastland PLE in Indianapolis. WWE has been rebuilding Nakamura as a top star, similar to his run in New Japan Pro Wrestling and NXT and that was noted on commentary. It is interesting that Muta was flown in for the show so perhaps, there's more to come with Muta getting involved in this feud. See the post-show attack below.
