Seth Freakin’ Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura have been feuding for over two months now. The rivalry sparked off in early August when Nakamura turned his back on Rollins after a huge six-man tag team action. Later the duo battled each other in Payback. Last night on Raw, The Visionary was in sheer disbelief after Michael Cole revealed that he has only missed two shows in his entire career.

In the latest edition of Raw, Michael Cole interviewed the World Heavyweight Champion ahead of his Last Man Standing against Shinsuke Nakamura next week at Fastlane. As Rollins made his way to the ring, Cole kicked off the segment by noting that he had called a multitude of Rollins’ matches and came up with some of his nicknames.

The WWE veteran went on to name some of the monikers such as Architect, Visionary, Manipulator, and Puppeteer. However, this time Rollins is being the puppet, alleged Cole. He asked the 37-year-old superstar why he was putting himself through so much brutality.

Rollins took umbrage at Cole’s words. He asked Michael Cole to list out the number of shows he had missed throughout his career. The 56-year-old’s answer left the champion stunned. Cole revealed that he has only missed two shows in his 26-year-long association with WWE. The Visionary and WWE Universe alike were amazed by the unabating passion and dedication of the veteran towards his job.

The Architect, Visionary, Manipulator, and Puppeteer; are some of the nicknames that Cole noted in the interview. The WWE veteran reminded the champion that he came up with some of these nicknames.

Moreover, fans on X noted that the words, “Manipulator” and “Puppeteer” from Cole’s interview were once mentioned by CM Punk in the first-ever pipe bomb promo of The Straight Edge Superstar during his run in ROH. The video has now gone viral all over X. Apparently, there had been references to the former AEW superstar in the last two weeks of Raw, prompting the fans to wonder if Punk is indeed going to return to the Stamford-based promotion.
