Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins v Roman Reigns & The Rock (WrestleMania 40; Night One)
The hatred between Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns had run so deep that by WrestleMania 40, Rollins had one goal in mind. Ending Roman Reigns’ historic championship run and helping Cody Rhodes finish his story.
Seth Rollins had no qualms in teaming with Rhodes to determine the stipulation heading into Night Two’s main event. That sold the tension that had boiled between the two men, and that years had not softened their relationship.
The main event of WrestleMania 40 Night One was long on time, but heavy with emotion. The 40-minute runtime was a bit hefty for a tag team match; thankfully, the talents of all men involved helped to drive the story forward.
Every time that Rollins and Reigns locked up, we could feel the years of history. Seth Rollins’ drive to ruin everything for Roman Reigns was palpable and followed the duo into the next night of WrestleMania 40.

Seth Rollins v Roman Reigns v CM Punk (WrestleMania 41; Night One)
Rollins and Reigns found themselves back in the main event of WrestleMania a year after competing against one another. This time, they had CM Punk join them to make it a triple threat match. CM Punk was flying high on getting his long-awaited WrestleMania main event, but the story was still about the years of hatred built up between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
Paul Heyman was the added caveat to this match. Roman Reigns, the former Wiseman, stood in the corner of CM Punk, giving the Second City Saint an advantage over the field. However, in another brilliant move of deception, Seth Rollins revealed that Heyman was working with him, and the Wiseman interfered to give Seth Rollins the victory. It was the latest act of betrayal by Rollins, stealing another prize from Roman Reigns.
