The upcoming Night of Champions 2025 is set to feature a high-stakes showdown as John Cena prepares to defend his Undisputed WWE Title, following his recent heel turn and record-breaking 17th WWE World Championship win after defeating Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 Night Two in Riyadh. As anticipation builds, speculation has emerged regarding whether Seth Rollins might cause a major upset and end Cena’s reign sooner than expected.
Seth Rollins Hints at Cash-In as Tensions Mount on RAW
During this week’s RAW, Cena demanded tougher competition, drawing out CM Punk—publicly known as The Best in the World—who challenged him for the championship. Cena accepted, agreeing to face Punk at Night of Champions. The situation grew more unpredictable when Mr. Money in the Bank, Seth Rollins, suddenly appeared, holding the coveted Money in the Bank contract. Rollins hinted he might cash it in during the championship event. If Rollins acts, the title bout could become a sudden Triple Threat match, with Rollins pinning either Cena or Punk to claim the Undisputed WWE Title for himself.
Potential Aftermath for Cena and WWE’s Landscape
If Rollins succeeds, he could abruptly end Cena’s 17th world title reign in dramatic fashion and elevate himself—and his group, The Visionary’s faction—to dominant status within WWE. Such a scenario would dramatically alter the title picture and the power balance within the company. However, as of now, this storyline remains speculative and has not been officially confirmed by WWE, leaving fans eager to see if this twist will materialize at Night of Champions.
Industry Reactions to Rollins’ Money in the Bank Win
There has been debate about whether Seth Rollins was the right choice to win the 2025 Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match. On Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Legion of RAW, former WWE writer Vince Russo voiced his disagreement, suggesting that Bronson Reed or Bron Breakker would have been better options:
“Seth Rollins, we’ve been down this road a million times. How much better would it have been if either Breakker or Bronson were in it and won it. I don’t know how they are missing things that just slap you across the face.” —Vince Russo, Former WWE Writer
As Night of Champions 2025 approaches, fans and analysts alike are left wondering if Seth Rollins will once again pull off a shocking win reminiscent of his earlier “heist” and change the course of WWE history.
