Seth Rollins has accomplished almost everything there is to do at WrestleMania. He has won world titles, delivered memorable performances, and pulled off one of the most famous Money in the Bank cash-ins in WWE history. However, he still wants to main event WrestleMania before calling it a day.

Despite being part of several matches that headlined the show, the former World Heavyweight Champion does not believe he has truly main-evented the biggest WWE event of the year.

The Visionary recently opened up his WrestleMania aspirations during an appearance on The Kittle Things with NFL star George Kittle. His wife, Becky Lynch, also joined him.

Rollins has been part of three major WrestleMania main events. The first came at WrestleMania 31 in 2015.

At the time, Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns were competing for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main event. Rollins then cashed in his Money in the Bank contract and turned the singles match into a triple threat. He pinned Reigns to win the title in what became known as the “Heist of the Century.”

However, Rollins does not count that moment as a proper WrestleMania main event. He explained that he was not advertised for the spot before the show.

“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,” Rollins said.

He also headlined Night One of WrestleMania 40. He teamed up with Cody Rhodes to face The Rock and Roman Reigns. Rollins also headlined Night One of WrestleMania 41, where he defeated Roman Reigns and CM Punk in a triple threat match after Paul Heyman turned on his former allies and joined him.

However, he still doesn’t see that as the main event he wants.

“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,” Rollins explained.

He also admitted that he still has time to achieve that goal.

“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,” he added.

Becky Lynch disagreed with her husband’s take. She believes his previous WrestleMania appearances should count as main events.


Rollins’ next WrestleMania opportunity could depend on how things play out over the coming months. He hasn’t wrestled a match on WWE TV since SummerSlam 2026, where he lost the World Heavyweight Championship to Roman Reigns. However, he recently returned to action during WWE’s South American tour.
