Seth Rollins and CM Punk's feud is escalating as they prepare for their much-anticipated showdown at RAW on Netflix. The two wrestlers exchanged intense words on the latest episode of RAW, showing no signs of backing down.

Seth Rollins often discusses his accomplishments in WWE as a key focus. He has accomplished notable success within the company and is seen as the ideal representation of a wrestler who personifies WWE's values. However, this does not diminish CM Punk's career.

The Voice of the Voiceless has accomplished many impressive feats in WWE. Nevertheless, when comparing their achievements, Punk's cannot match Rollins'. Here are five WWE honors that Seth Rollins possesses but CM Punk does not.


A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

#5. Seth Rollins has main-evented not one, but two WrestleManias

The first accolade, that CM Punk has been made painfully aware of, is Seth Rollins' WrestleMania main event record. While The Best in the World continues to dream of main-eventing The Show of Shows, Rollins has already gone and done it, not once, but twice.

Rollins not only main-evented WrestleMania 40 last year alongside Cody Rhodes against Roman Reigns and The Rock, but he also had one of the greatest Mania moments years prior. A moment that just so happens to be the next on this list, and one that saw him crash the main event of WrestleMania 31.


#4. Rollins has the greatest-ever Money in the Bank cash-in to his name

No matter what your thoughts are about Seth Rollins, it is indisputable that he has had many unforgettable moments in the world of WWE. One standout achievement was when he took advantage of his Money in the Bank contract at WrestleMania 31 to become the WWE Champion.

It was a huge moment and one that established him as a top star. But then, the question arises, what about CM Punk's two Money in the Bank wins? While those are no doubt incredible, they cannot compare to just how iconic Rollins' cash-in was.


#3. The Visionary is a Grand Slam Champion

As previously stated, Seth Rollins has achieved nearly every accolade available in the WWE. Consequently, he joins the prestigious group of Grand Slam Champions who have competed in the Stamford-based promotion.

Although many names are listed, one notable absence is CM Punk. At 46 years old, he is one United States Championship win away from joining the list. Currently, though, Rollins has the upper hand in this regard.


#2. Rollins has had the honor of being the last man standing in the Royal Rumble

Seth Rollins has CM Punk beat in more than just WrestleMania main events. His victory also extends to the Royal Rumble. While Punk nearly won the event last year, he ultimately failed, unlike The Visionary, who has a Royal Rumble victory under his belt.

Back in 2019, the 38-year-old emerged as the sole survivor in the wrestling ring. This win paved the way for him to challenge and ultimately triumph over Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35, earning the title of WWE Universal Champion.


#1. Rollins has 16 championships compared to Punk's eight

Last but not least, it all comes down to the resume. When perusing through both of them, one superstar clearly stands out when it comes to championships, and that is Seth Rollins.

Over the course of his career with WWE, The Visionary has won a grand total of 16 championships. This includes multiple reigns as World Champion, United States, and Intercontinental Champion, and of course Tag Team Champion. On the other hand, Punk only has eight championships to his name.

In other words, no matter how you slice it, Rollins has achieved far more as a WWE superstar than Punk.
