WWE Superstar Seth Rollins will be facing AJ Styles in the opening match of Night of Champions 2023, but why is the match on so early?
According to a new report/rumour from Boozer Wrestling, Rollins needs to get his match out of the way so that he can get back to the United States for filming responsibilities.
“The word is Seth needs to wrestle and fly back ASAP for his movie contract obligations” the account claimed on Twitter ahead of Night of Champions.

It’s worth noting that these rumours from Boozer Wrestling are just that, rumours, as we are unable to verify whether or not the report is legitimate at this time.
Rollins was recently pictured filming for the new Captain America film, so while we can’t confirm this is for that, it would certainly make sense for it to be.
We still do not know if Rollins is likely to win the belt from Styles at NOC, but he has been the favourite to do so pretty much from the outset.
