#5 He is the only superstar in WWE history to cash-in his MITB at Wrestlemania

Wha
What a moment

Ever since Seth Rollins betrayed his brothers and joined forces with Triple H, we all knew he was destined for greatness.

With the Authority's assistance, the Architect was able to grab the Money in the Bank briefcase. His continuous dominant performances helped him rise to the top.

Considering that Roman Reigns was the Chosen One, Rollins had to prove his worth to attain that top spot, and he did.

Since the WWE Universe vehemently rejected Roman Reigns' Royal Rumble victory, the company had a tough decision to take.

While Brock Lesnar Vs. Roman Reigns stole the show at WrestleMania 31, it was the Architect who ended the night on a high note.

Despite the successful cash-ins that have transpired over the course of time in WWE, it was Seth Rollins' shocking WrestleMania cash-in that takes the cake.

After losing to Randy Orton on the same night, the 32-year old Superstar was hell-bent on stealing the spotlight from the Big Dog.

There's no denying that the moment remains one of the greatest in WrestleMania history and catapulted Seth Rollins like a storm in the world of professional wrestling.

#4 He is the only Superstar from the New Era to face WCW Icon 'Sting' in a WWE ring

Enter
Sting's last wrestling match came with Seth Rollins

While Sting is regarded as an icon in the world of professional wrestling, his WWE career did no justice to his reputation.

The Vigilante lost his debut match against Triple H at WrestleMania 31 and then went on to feud with Seth Rollins for the WWE Championship.

A more interesting fact, however, is that Seth Rollins was the only superstar from the modern crop to share a WWE ring with the Icon.

It's a damn shame that Stinger's career ended in unfortunate circumstances but it gave Seth Rollins a once in a lifetime opportunity to dance with his childhood hero.

The Architect competed in gruesome encounters with both John Cena and Sting at Night of Champions, and while he did lose the U.S. Championship, the 32-year old Superstar managed to walk out with the WWE Championship.

It's rather unfortunate that Rollins' turnbuckle powerbomb caused Sting a legitimate neck injury. However, the Architect not only defeated Sting but cemented his position as the only superstar from the New Era to share a WWE ring with the Icon.

#3 Rollins spent the longest amount of time in a match in Raw's 25-year history

The Man is all about breaking records

After his inspiring win against the Game at WrestleMania 33, the Architect seemed destined for greater things. However, meaningless feuds depreciated Rollins' credibility as a main-event performer.

While he did have an impressive tag-team run with Dean Ambrose before aligning the Shield, the Architect's 2017 was rather unlucky.

With both Ambrose and Jason Jordan suffering legitimate injuries, Seth Rollins' Road to WrestleMania was pushed to the backdrop.

Considering how valuable Rollins is, the company tried to divert his direction to more meaningful feuds. While the former NXT Champion did improve, his career-defining moment came in a Gauntlet Match on Monday Night Raw.

In what was supposed to be a preview for the Elimination Chamber ended up catapulting the Architect in to the biggest babyface alive.

The 32-year old sensation spent 1 hour and 5 minutes in the ring and cemented his position in history as the only superstar to have spent so much time in Raw's 25-year history.

His incredible performance redefined his position within the company. If it had not been for that Gauntlet Match, Rollins would not have secured his position as 'Monday Night Rollins'.

#2 He is the only Superstar to have defeated Roman Reigns and John Cena in back-to-back encounters on the same night

The
The Architect annihilated Vince's Golden Boys on the same night

While many superstars have pinned John Cena and Roman Reigns, nobody has ever defeated them in back-to-back encounters.

However, Seth Rollins went the distance and changed this fact from the history books. The Architect not only spent the longest time on Monday Night Raw but also defeated Vince's Golden Boys while doing so.

Considering how versatile Rollins is, he pulled off some incredible moves that had the crowd on its feet.

Displaying incredible heart and agility, the King Slayer took Roman Reigns and John Cena to the edge.

While he did lose to Elias minutes later, the former WWE Champion proved that he can hang with the company's poster boys.

Defeating both the superstars simultaneously spoke volumes about his credentials as a performer and gave us a night we will never forget.

Seth Rollins' amazing feat of strength when he picked John Cena and adjusted his own attitude is still one of the greatest reversals I have ever seen.

#1 He is the only superstar to hold the WWE Championship and United States Championship simultaneously

<p>
Is there anything left for him to achieve?

A fantastic encounter between John Cena and Seth Rollins in a 'Winner takes all' match saw the first NXT Champion make history once again.

The Architect not only defeated John Cena but also became the only superstar in WWE history to hold the WWE Championship and U.S. Championship at the same time.

While John Cena was receiving critical acclaim for his U.S. Championship reign, putting Seth Rollins over at Summer Slam was the right thing to do.

The match had everything- the spots, the performances, and a surprising heel turn from Jon Stewart.

Considering that John Cena degraded Seth Rollins' WWE Title reign, the King Slayer's win proved that he was on his way to greatness.

The title win could perhaps be the most satisfying victory of his career and definitely positioned him as a main-event threat.
