5) Seth Rollins Was BANNED
Seth Rollins appeared at NXT Takeover: San Antonio, one night prior to the Royal Rumble. He hijacked the show, trying to call out Triple H and was eventually escorted out of the building by security.
As a result of his actions, Seth was BANNED from the Alamodome from Stephanie McMahon. The news was announced on the kickoff show:

It was assumed by many fans that this meant a surprise run-in from Seth in the Royal Rumble match but we didn’t see it. I guess we will have to wait until RAW to find out more in the storyline between Seth and Triple H.
