Seth Rollins is gearing up for the main event at WrestleMania 41 Night 1, where he will face off against Roman Reigns and CM Punk. Rollins sees this match as a battle for the soul of the company, with longstanding feuds with both competitors. Despite his impressive performances over the last 18 months, Rollins feels that he has often been overlooked. He attempted to challenge Cody Rhodes for the world heavyweight championship at WrestleMania 40 but was declined. He then returned to the ring to face off against Punk, only to have his attempts thwarted by Reigns and a Royal Rumble mishap.
Paul Heyman, a WWE Hall of Famer, has praised Rollins for his performances and considers him to be the true MVP of the ongoing storyline involving Reigns and Punk. Heyman acknowledges that Rollins could have easily been forgotten in the shadow of the other two competitors but has instead excelled in his performances. Despite some fans on social media failing to give Rollins his due, Heyman dismisses their opinions and emphasizes the historical facts of Rollins’ achievements in the ring.
On the final “Monday Night Raw” before WrestleMania 41, Rollins stood tall in the ring as he delivered stomps to both Punk and Reigns. Heyman was asked if he could see himself taking another finishing move in the upcoming match and acknowledged that it is a possibility, as the storyline dictates. Heyman has already been put through a table by Reigns’ Bloodline faction in the past and is prepared for whatever may come his way during the match.
Heyman also highlighted the achievements of Punk and Reigns, acknowledging Punk’s first-time main event appearance at WrestleMania and Reigns’ continued success as the Tribal Chief in a post-Bloodline world. He expressed his admiration for Rollins’ performances, citing The Rock’s description of Rollins as the “MVP of WrestleMania weekend” and noting that he has upped his game to a shocking level of mobility that has caught many off guard.
As the WrestleMania 41 Night 1 main event approaches, Rollins, Reigns, and Punk are set to battle it out for supremacy in the company. Rollins’ ability to rise above his competitors and deliver exceptional performances has earned him praise from Heyman and fans alike. Despite facing setbacks and challenges, Rollins has persisted in his pursuit of success and is poised to make a significant impact on the outcome of the main event.
