Seth Rollins finally put an end to a wrinkle that’s been bothering him the most at Crown Jewel in controversial fashion.
The World Heavyweight Champion is winless against WWE Champion Cody Rhodes coming in to their WWE Crown Jewel Championship match in Perth, Western Australia. This has been eating Rollins alive for the past three years. He even abadoned his teammates in The Vision at one point to primarily focus on beating Rhodes and informed them he need to do it by himself.
Both men pulled all the stops but couldn’t quite upend each other. During the match, the Visionary shocked the WWE universe by hitting the Coast to Coast headbutt on the American Nightmare. He followed it up with a Rock Bottom, only for a near-fall.
Rhodes countered with a super Cross Rhodes on his own but Rollins kicked out. The WWE Champion set up the World Heavyweight Champion for a pedigree but what happened next is more shocking.

Seth Rollins was able to escape from Cody Rhodes’ impending pedigree and crawled right into the Rolex watch that the WWE Champion gave to him in 2024. The Visionary hid it and allowed himself to get kicked by the American Nightmare.
Rollins struck into the referee which allowed him to nail Rhodes in the jaw with the watch. He then stomped the latter and for good measure, unleashed the super Stomp from the second rope.
