Seth Rollins has cemented himself as one of the most consistent performers on the WWE roster. The Visionary continues to deliver Match of the Year candidates on weekly television and pay-per-view events. His matches provide a great mix of in-ring storytelling and athleticism.
When it comes to WrestleMania, Rollins has been a part of several classics on the Grandest Stage of Them All. His matches have been from solid to great. Let’s take a look at Seth Rollins’ five best WrestleMania matches.
Seth Rollins vs. The Miz vs. Finn Balor
WrestleMania 34 underperformed critically except for the opening contest, the SmackDown Women’s Title Match, and Ronda Rousey’s in-ring debut. The opening contest saw The Miz defend his Intercontinental Championship against Finn Balor and Seth Rollins.
All three men worked a fast-paced match that really complemented the chemistry they had inside the squared circle. The finish turned out to be highly creative, making Rollins the second two-time Grand Slam Champion in WWE history.
Vs. Logan Paul (WrestleMania 39)
The build to Seth Rollins versus Logan Paul was a lot of fun. The Maverick had eliminated The Visionary at the 2023 Royal Rumble. Paul would once again cost Rollins a high-stakes match-up at Elimination Chamber 2023.
Both men would meet in a high-profile match at WrestleMania 39, on night one/Saturday. This was a true sports entertainment spectacle. Rollins worked the match like the true veteran he is. Paul showed he was made for this industry.
Also, KSI’s cameo was really well done.
Vs. Cesaro (WrestleMania 37)
Cesaro (aka Claudio Castagnoli) found himself in a heated feud with Seth Rollins in 2021. After a series of back-and-forth exchanges on weekly television, the pair finally came face-to-face at WrestleMania 37.
This 20-minute outing features some excellent wrestling from both men. Cesaro looked incredibly capable with his reversals and overall wrestling psychology. It’s a shame WWE didn’t put a world title on him when they had the chance.
Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar (WrestleMania 31)
Seth Rollins was the only good part of the build to WrestleMania 31, which began at the Royal Rumble. The former Shield member delivered one of the greatest non-Rumble matches alongside John Cena and Brock Lesnar.
While Rollins failed to win the title that night, he eventually claimed the championship in the “Heist of the Century” at WrestleMania 31. Rollins inserted himself during the closing moments of Roman Reigns versus Brock Lesnar.
The rest is history.
Vs. Cody Rhodes (WrestleMania 38)
WWE couldn’t have picked a better opponent for Cody Rhodes’ comeback. Both men had been involved in some excellent multi-man matches during their tag team days. Their chemistry, to this day, is second to none.
After carrying the build to WrestleMania 38 on his back, the Monday Night Messiah finally came face-to-face with his opponent on April 2, 2022. This match instantly turned into a show stealer as both men tore the house down with their performance.
Seth Rollins versus Cody Rhodes quickly became one of WWE’s most acclaimed trilogy, with the third and final match from the series capping off in stunning fashion inside Hell in a Cell.
