He and Braun Strowman will defend their Raw Tag-Team Titles against Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler at the pay-per-view – before he puts his other gold on the line against his partner in the main event.

But the 33-year-old, real name Colby Lopez, has revealed his joy at finding out he has a brother and sister he only discovered thanks to a DNA test just days before his double defence.

Rollins tweeted a picture alongside his brother and wrote: “In a wild turn of events, I recently found out I have a brother (and sister, not pictured) I never knew existed! Thank you @23andMe for bringing people together.

“Life is a crazy, awesome thing and we are all insanely lucky to get to experience it.”

Rollins began the year by winning the Royal Rumble in January to secure a title at WrestleMania 35.

He opted to face Brock Lesnar at the Showcase of the Immortals at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and he defeated the former UFC heavyweight king to claim the Universal Title for the first time.

It was later confirmed that he was in a relationship with fellow WWE star Becky Lynch, real name Rebecca Quin, with the couple announcing their engagement last month.

Lesnar cashed in his Money in the Bank contract at Extreme Rules to regain the Universal Title from Rollins at July’s Extreme Rules.
