No, Narc. The guys who have been thrashing the 'power and money' characters would not suddenly change to become one. It just doesn't make sense.

Ambrose and Reigns are already ready for singles runs and Rollins needs a it of work.
I don't think he needs any real work, but that has nothing to do with not having a logical reason for him to turn on them for the losing team.

Putting him with Trips works. And as I said on the podcast, if he came out and was like "Triple H gave me a million dollars and a future title shot," I would buy it and it would make sense.
Teaming him with the guy his current team has soundly embarrassed twice in a row...works. How, exactly? Nobody has said anything about title shots or monetary gifts -- which, again, wouldn't be enticing to the character who was all about brotherhood and solidarity over authoritarianism -- so, how does it actually work?

Quote:
Also, If Rollins truly believes he's a master group architect, why wouldn't he wants to form an alliance with two of the Kayfabe best guys in the company?
Because he's already on the team THAT HAS DESTROYED THOSE GUYS TWICE IN A ROW. It does not make sense.

What does being an "architect" even have to do with that? How does being the core of The Shield benefit him when working with two guys who have been working together for so long, now? All H has to do is tell Randy he wants an apology, and Orton immediately gets on his knees, so what does Rollins have to do with their relationship?

Quote:
Not to mention he's got a guy with power on his side now. It works. You just aren't letting it work.
Again, having a guy "with power" on his side...who he has soundly gone up against and defeated TWICE IN A ROW. He has not been afraid to go up against authority...but now he suddenly wants to buddy up with the authority figure...even though said authority figure has been unable to stop oppressed talent from winning championships?

Just because we're pointing out how illogical this is doesn't mean that we're the reason it isn't logical.
