Seth Rollins was one of the biggest projects of WWE in 2025, and he was supposed to be put over as the biggest star of the year. Things kicked off for him at WrestleMania 41 when he pinned Roman Reigns. He went on to win the Money in the Bank Ladder match for the second time in his career, which guaranteed him a future cash in a desired champion.
Ultimately, Seth Rollins cashed in the contract on CM Punk at SummerSlam to win the World Heavyweight Championship. He was doing an amazing job as the champion; he was even rumoured to be defending the Championship against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 42. But unfortunately, he suffered a major injury at Crown Jewel.
Seth Rollins pointed out the moment that changed WWE forever
He was forced to drop the championship due to the injury, and reports suggest that he is now going to be out of action for quite a long time. Seth Rollins recently talked about the moment that completely changed the landscape of WWE while speaking on the “Games With Names” podcast. Here is what he had to say;
Seth Rollins thinks Cody Rhodes defeating Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL was the landscape changing moment of WWE
“I think the most important match that we’ve had recently with the most story and the most build that could probably push this list strong is the WrestleMania 40 Night 2 main event with Roman [Reigns] and Cody [Rhodes]. The kind of the death of the Bloodline and all the things that went into that whole story and then getting to that point where Roman finally loses the title. That’s a watershed moment in our I’d say our industry.”
Cody Rhodes is also rumoured to defend the Championship against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 42
Cody Rhodes made his return to WWE during WrestleMania 38 and became the surprise opponent of Rollins. He had been promoted as the face of WWE ever since, and he was built to dethrone Roman Reigns who was having the World Championship run of his lifetime. After two years of build, he finally defeated Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL to end his 1300+ day streak.
Cody Rhodes has been the face of WWE ever since, and he already stands as a two times WWE World Champion. He already has some amazing feuds with the likes of Kevin Owens and John Cena, and he still stands as the face of the promotion. He is strongly rumoured to defend his Championship against Roman Reigns at the upcoming WrestleMania 42 event.
