Seth Rollins wins the WWE Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 31

Personally, if there's any moment that got me on the edge of my seat and gave me chills down my spine, it is this one. Roman Reigns squared off against Brock Lesnar in the main event of WrestleMania 31 in what was a classic encounter and while the fans were totally against the idea of Reigns getting his moment, the company pulled off a shocker that night.

Seth Rollins pulled off the impossible by running down to the ring and successfully cashing in his Money in the Bank contract to win the WWE Championship. The company understood the repercussions of Reigns winning the title and therefore, pulled off the heist of the century.

Seth made history by becoming the first wrestler to cash in his MITB Contract at WrestleMania as well as the first member of The Shield to hold the most coveted prize. Some WrestleMania moments really become special because of the timing of it all, and this moment certainly delivered the unexpected.
