Bronson Reed was in rare form when he took out Seth Rollins during the August 5 episode of WWE RAW. That stunt took out Seth Rollins, who was dealing with a chronic injury, but Reed isn’t going anywhere despite his recent fine.
Reed was fined by WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce for his massacre on RAW this week. This comes after an intense segment on Monday’s edition of WWE Raw, which began with an in-ring promo by CM Punk. The promo quickly escalated into a confrontation involving Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre, culminating in a surprise attack by Reed. After Punk chased McIntyre out of the ring, Reed took advantage of Rollins being alone and launched a vicious assault.
Big Bronson Reed responded on Twitter to Adam Pearce’s message with a brief comment on his actions, simply stating, “Worth it, stooge.” It doesn’t seem like he’s bothered by this fine.
During the attack on RAW, Reed delivered six Tsunami finishers to Rollins and attempted a seventh before officials intervened and rolled Rollins under the ropes to halt the beating. This was a violent way to write the Monday Night Messiah out of the weekly television angles.
RAW General Manager Adam Pearce later shared an update on social media, revealing that Rollins suffered several cracked ribs and internal bruising and will be out of action for an unspecified time. Pearce also announced that Reed had been fined a “massive yet undisclosed” amount for his actions during the incident. Obviously, Bronson Reed isn’t shaken by this at all. In fact, he may wear the fine as a badge of honor in his bank account.
Bronson Reed has been trying hard to re-establish herself on the WWE main roster since he was re-signed by Triple H. This chance to squash Seth Rollins like he did was a huge opportunity that he didn’t pass up. Now, it appears he will do everything he can to keep the heat going after that segment.
