Seth Rollins recently picked up a big win over Logan Paul at WrestleMania 39, and earlier this week he faced off against The Miz on Raw in a match that received a lot of praise. Rollins has been on a roll, and he’s currently set to face off against a gigantic Superstar at Backlash.
On Friday it was announced that Seth Rollins vs. Omos will take place at the Backlash premium live event, and the announcement left many confused as the match has seemingly come out of nowhere.

The announcement has left a lot of people confused as Seth Rollins and Omos haven’t been feuding, so it seems that WWE just randomly decided to add this match to the Backlash card. Seth Rollins reacted to the announcement when he posted a gif of Ace Ventura saying “alrighty then” on Twitter.
