In an update, Triple H took to Twitter after Night of Champions to publicly congratulate Rollins on making WWE history. He included one of his signature “Triple H points” photos.
“History made. An incredible ‘Freakin’ match to kick off an epic #WWENOC. Congratulations to your new World Heavyweight Champion @WWERollins,” he wrote.
It was reported that Rollins vs. Styles had to open the show because Rollins had to fly back to the United States to continue filming the “Captain America: New World Order” movie, which is why Rollins missed the last two weeks of RAW. Rollins spoke to Byron Saxton in a post-match backstage interview and promised to be on Monday’s RAW in Albany, NY.
