Seth Rollins On Why He Doesn’t Feel Like He’s Been In a WrestleMania Main Event

Seth Rollins has been in three matches that headlined WrestleMania, but he still doesn’t feel like he’s been in a “WrestleMania main event.” The WWE star cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase during the main event of WrestleMania 31, was part of the tag team match that closed WrestleMania 40 night one, and then battled CM Punk and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 41 night one.

And yet, as Rollins said on an episode of The Kittle Things alongside Becky Lynch, Rollins doesn’t see him as having been in a pure main event of WWE’s biggest event. He explained that the night ones aren’t the same as closing the final night, and that WrestleMania 31 wasn’t an advertised appearance so it feels different. You can see highlights below (per F4W Online):

On Why His WrestleMania 31 Match Doesn’t Count To Him:

“Most people consider it the main event, like part of the main event. If you look at it on the lineup, it would be because it’s technically the triple threat match because I changed the match to a triple threat. But I was not on the marquee. I wasn’t advertised as the main event. So, at this point, there’s many, many arguments to be had. I feel like I have never been in a main event of WrestleMania.”

On Wrestlemania 40 and 41:

“I’ve had Night One main events, and I helped in the Night Two main event at WrestleMania 40 with Cody and Roman. And I had the cash-in, but I’ve never been the person on the marquee to finish the show, Night Two.”

On Getting a ‘Proper’ WrestleMania Main Event:

“Maybe. I got a few years left. We’ll see if I can get there. But everybody has a different perspective on that, especially now that it’s gone to two nights. (Becky’s) like, ‘Oh yeah, you’ve main-evented. WrestleMania 40, because the poster material is me, Cody, Roman, and Rock.’ So, I’m there. You know what I mean? I was World Heavyweight Champion.”
