The Heist of the Century will probably go down as one of the greatest moments in WWE history. Back in 2015, Seth Rollins cashed-in his Money in the Bank contract in the main-event of WrestleMania 31. He ran down that long entrance ramp and immediately ceased the opportunity. He stomped Roman Reignsโ head and pinned him to capture the WWE Championship.
And just like that, Seth Rollins reached at the mountain top of WWE. History was made at the Leviโs Stadium and not a single fan was sitting on their desired seats. The crowd jumped in excitement and everyone witnessed the start of inaccessible glory for The Architect. Today, more than 7 years have passed by, however, that moment still pumps in the adrenaline.
Even though Rollins is the current World Heavyweight Champion and has accomplished everything in the business, he wonโt ever be able to forget what transpired in 2015. Many fans believe that it was probably the best WrestleMania ending WWE has had in that decade. Recently, The Visionary recalled that magical essence and revealed who was responsible for it.
During his chat with Mark Andrews, the 37-year-old credits himself for being the originator of that history-making idea. He had that idea two months prior to The Show of Shows. Rollins even discussed his vision with former WWE superstar Cesaro. They exchanged stuff and created scenarios. However, Seth was just hellbent on waiting for the right moment to pitch what he had in mind to the creative. Eventually they accepted the idea and the rest is history.
Seth Rollins has multiple enemies on sight at the moment
Ever since winning the World Heavyweight Title in Saudi Arabia, Rollins is showing new signs of life. Heโs more over among fans than he has ever been before. Quite evidently, the void of a World Champion on Raw was felt for a long time and Seth Rollins has already started to fill the cracks.
Next week, heโs scheduled for 2 title defenses on consecutive nights. First, heโs slated to hold an open challenge on Monday Night Raw in Cleveland. If he gets past through it, Bron Breakker will be waiting for The Revolutionary on NXT. As seen last night, Rollins appeared on the black & yellow brand to accept Breakkerโs challenge for that big gold.
Again, if somehow, Rollins overcomes Breakker on NXT: Gold Rush next week, he has a fixed date with Finn Balor. As confirmed on this weekโs Raw, The Prince will step-up to The Visionary at Money in the Bank. However, what version of Balor arrives at the O2 arena in London remains to be seen. Seth invoked the Irishman to awaken his alter-ego, The Demon, cause thatโs the only way he stands a chance against Rollins, claimed the champ.
