The mystery man’s return at the Royal Rumble

A black-hooded attacker destroyed Bron Breakker before the Royal Rumble match, and Paul Heyman shouted Seth Rollins’ name despite Rollins not being on the show. Reports link Grayson Waller to that hooded figure. WWE seems to be connecting Waller and Rollins through this angle, implying the mystery man may have acted on Rollins’ orders.

A Waller–Theory connection resurfacing

Austin Theory previously allied with Rollins and was later paired with Grayson Waller on television before Theory disappeared from programming. With Waller’s name tied to the mystery man storyline, it would not be surprising if Theory and Waller were secretly reunited and now working for Rollins. That reunion would mirror past alliances and suggest a coordinated effort.

Rollins’ reputation for contingency plans

Rollins has a history of betrayal and strategic pivots, having turned on Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose to end The Shield and later joining other factions. Given that Bron Breakker and The Vision have opposed Rollins, the idea that he has a Plan B involving Theory and Waller fits his established pattern. If true, it would be a clear sign Rollins is assembling a new Shield-style unit.
