Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins Make WWE History as First Couple to Win Intercontinental Titles

Published:

Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins become first couple to win WWE Intercontinental Titles, marking a significant milestone during the aftermath of Money in the Bank 2025, as the two top WWE stars further cement their legacy as a formidable power couple in wrestling. This achievement highlights not only their individual talents, but also their unique status within the WWE community, where these titles symbolize a rare and historic partnership.

Lynch and Rollins Reach a New WWE Milestone

Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch, both widely recognized as two of WWE’s most celebrated athletes, have added another remarkable chapter to their storied careers. Their combined success came into focus heading into the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, following Lynch’s recent triumph and Rollins’ continued dominance in the wrestling landscape.

The 2025 edition of Money in the Bank proved to be a breakout night for the couple. Rollins, often referred to as The Visionary, secured the Money in the Bank briefcase for a second time, while Lynch, known to fans as The Man, claimed the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship after a hard-fought victory over Lyra Valkyria. Notably, Lynch is just the second wrestler ever to hold this women’s title, which was introduced at the end of the prior year, adding further significance to her win.

The couple’s place in WWE history was highlighted when Instagram user _rollinsnet pointed out a unique record: Becky Lynch’s title win now means she and Seth Rollins are the only real-life couple ever to have both held Intercontinental Championships. Rollins had previously captured the WWE Intercontinental Title twice back in 2018. This feat establishes the pair as trailblazers in sports entertainment, joining past greats in rewriting what is possible for couples in professional wrestling.

Seth Rollins Discusses a Career Dream Yet to Be Realized

Beyond his recent success, Seth Rollins continues to chase new benchmarks and openly reflected on what remains unaccomplished in his WWE journey. The multi-time WWE Champion, at age 39 and over a decade into his career, recently discussed his aspirations during an appearance on the Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams. Despite his numerous accolades and career-defining matches, Rollins admitted there is one prestigious moment he still yearns for.

“One thing I have not done is main event Night Two of WrestleMania. I’ve main evented Night One a couple times, I’ve not main evented Night Two. For me, that last spot on the final night is the real main event of the show, so I would love to do that. Now you saw my Money in the Bank win from 11 years ago. I parlayed that into cashing in at the main event of WrestleMania 31, but I was not part of it. I had to insert myself via the contract. I would like to be on the marquee as the guy that is going to finish the show that everyone is paying to see. That’s the one for me,” he said.

Rollins’ remarks underline his enduring ambition in WWE, and with his latest Money in the Bank victory, he is now in position to pursue a new championship run and possibly headline the coveted second night of WrestleMania, often referred to by insiders as The Showcase of The Immortals.

What Their Achievements Mean for WWE

The historic accomplishment by Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins shines a light on their influence as a couple and as individuals in the wrestling world, setting a precedent for others hoping to reach similar heights as both partners and champions. Their ongoing pursuits, especially Rollins’ open goal of eventing WrestleMania Night Two, contribute to the continuing excitement and evolving narratives within WWE. As Money in the Bank 2025 continues to shape the future of the company, fans and industry figures alike will be watching closely to see how these two champions impact upcoming events.
