Seth Rollins Recalls His MITB Cash-In At WrestleMania 31

In a recent appearance on the My Love Letter To Wrestling podcast, Seth Rollins reflected on his famous Money In The Bank cash-in from 2015.

Rollins cashed in during the main event of Wrestlemania 31, turning Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar’s WWE Championship match into a triple threat showdown. Rollins shocked the world by pinning Reigns and winning the WWE Title at Levi’s Stadium.

Rollins revealed that he actually came up with the cash-in angle a few months before WrestleMania 31. He said,

“I had the idea to do the cash-in a couple of months before WrestleMania. So probably January [2015], December [2014]. I’m riding in the car with Cesaro, Claudio Castagnoli, and we’re booking the territory as we do, and I’ve got these ideas and I’m running them by him. He’s got his ideas, and we’re just trying to come up with some stuff, and it seemed like a good idea, but I had to find the right time to put the bug in somebody’s ear. I thought it was a great opportunity to create a moment unlike any we’ve ever seen. I thought it was a great way to build myself, but also to build Roman [Reigns] and give him somebody to chase. I just didn’t think the time was right, I didn’t think the audience was ready for that victory, and fortunately for me, I think people saw it that way as well.“
