Rollins hit the ring in the third hour of the show to call out his opponent for Payback on Saturday, Shinsuke Nakamura, and the sideplate was caught by WWE cameras. Rollins even dropped one of Wyatt's Firefly Funhouse catchphrases, "Yowie Wowie!" when addressing the audience.

Rollins did not attend Friday's episode of "SmackDown," which featured tributes to Rotunda, including a ten-bell salute. He and Wyatt feuded in the company in 2019 over the WWE Universal Title. After Rotunda's passing, Rollins posted an emotional video to X, explaining why he chose not to be at the show. 

"I loved him. I love him. I loved working with him, but mostly I just loved being around him," Rollins said in the video, posted to X. "He was always joyful, just, these eyes that drew you in and a smile and a laugh and a presence that just made you happy and we're all going to miss that."
