Seth Rollins won the new World Heavyweight Championship title for the second time at SummerSlam after he cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk, who just defeated Gunther to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. This was his first championship win after he returned to WWE at Survivor Series 2023.
But the Best in the World could not enjoy his first WWE World title reign in 12 long years as Rollins stole the title by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract. The present scenario suggests that Rollins is not going to drop the Championship before WrestleMania 42 or later. Multiple names have been suggested to be the opponent of Rollins at the Grandest Stage of Them All next year.
Roman Reigns to challenge Seth Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight title at WrestleMania 42
CM Punk may be continuing his feud with Seth Rollins presently for the World Heavyweight title, but rumors have it that he can also be the opponent of the Architect at WrestleMania 42. But the biggest rumors at this moment about the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 42 to the dream match between Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns for the title.
Roman Reigns never defeated Seth Rollins previously
The fans kept on complaining that the World Heavyweight Championship has not been treated equally to the Undisputed WWE Championship ever since the title was introduced. This is the first time the title is finally getting some proper treatment, and we can also say that this is the time when the title is being treated equally to its other half.
Rollins pinned Reigns at WrestleMania 41
It has been over 2 years since the WWE World Heavyweight title was introduced, and if the title is on the line in a match between Rollins and Reigns, who are arguably the biggest names of WWE right now, which title can even be established as a bigger deal than the Undisputed WWE Championship?
A new rivalry between Rollins and Reigns started at WrestleMania 41, where Paul Heyman betrayed Roman Reigns to side with Rollins. Since that night, Roman Reigns never got the opportunity to take his revenge. Challenging him for the WWE World Heavyweight title at WrestleMania 42 would have been the best way to avenge himself.
