#2 Seth Rollins

'The Architect' of The Shield comes in at #2
'The Architect' of The Shield comes in at #2

The first ever NXT Champion and 'The Architect' of The Shield ranks No. 2 on this list. Much like Roman Reigns, you can love him or hate him, but you can't argue the facts. Seth Rollins is one of the most decorated NXT call ups of all time. His run with The Shield is well documented, but it's what he did after the 'Hounds of Justice' went their separate ways that earns him this No. 2 ranking.

A little over a year after Rollins turned his back on Reigns and Ambrose, he won Money in the Bank, and the United States and WWE Championships. Eventually, he would also became a Grand Slam Champion when he won the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania 34.

However it was at WrestleMania 31 where Rollins delivered arguably the greatest shock in the event's history. Remember that Money in the Bank briefcase previously mentioned? Of course you do:

This was just the first of many big moments for Rollins:

  • 2X Universal Champion
  • 2X WWE Champion
  • United States Champion
  • 2X Intercontinental Champion
  • 5X RAW Tag Team Champion
  • NXT Champion
  • 2018 Royal Rumble Match winner
  • 2014 Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match winner

The appropriately nicknamed 'Beast Slayer' is one of very few people to record not one, but two clean Title victories over Brock Lesnar. He's also the only man to ever hold the WWE and U.S. Titles at the same time.

This coming Sunday, Rollins will lead Team RAW into battle in the 5-on-5-on-5 Men's Elimination Match at Survivor Series.
