Amid the ongoing buzz around Seth Rollins’ role in the upcoming Bloodline fight at Survivor Series, A memorable moment from WrestleMania XL is lighting up the wrestling world. As fans recall Seth Rollins’ fierce confrontation with Roman Reigns the video goes viral again.

The match, packed with intense drama and personal stakes, saw Rollins entering the ring not to seek glory but to lend a hand to Cody Rhodes. In the two-night WrestleMania showdown, Rollins and Rhodes faced Reigns and The Rock in an unforgettable tag-team battle, with Rollins returning the next night to aid Rhodes as he went toe-to-toe with Reigns, the self-proclaimed “Head of the Table.”

The resurgence of this moment comes as WWE hints at an intriguing twist — Rollins potentially joining forces with Reigns’ Bloodline to battle Solo Sikoa in an upcoming Survivor Series WarGames match.

Throwback to WrestleMania XL!

At WrestleMania XL, Rollins’ intervention was pivotal. During Cody Rhodes’ climactic showdown with Reigns, Rollins stormed in to provide backup, sparking an explosive reaction. This unexpected interference drew the ire of Reigns, who, channelling years of rivalry, struck Rollins with a chair, a move reminiscent of the Shield's infamous breakup a decade earlier.

Here is the video: 

Rollins’ appearance didn’t just bolster Rhodes; it also reminded fans of his complicated history with Reigns, adding layers to WWE’s longstanding storytelling. Amid the escalating Bloodline saga, Rollins’ recent refusal to join either of the Bloodline factions has only fueled speculation. The latest episodes of Raw saw both the “old Bloodline,” led by Sami Zayn, and the “new Bloodline,” helmed by Solo Sikoa, seek Rollins as their fifth man for the upcoming WarGames battle at Survivor Series.

Will this pave the way for the Rollins vs Reigns showdown?

Though Rollins declined both overtures, WWE taped an upcoming Raw segment that shows Solo Sikoa interfering in Rollins’ match against Bronson Reed, a move that hints at an alliance that could ultimately lead Rollins to reluctantly join Reigns’ side for just this high-stakes match.

With Survivor Series featuring a 10-man WarGames match, the prospect of Rollins teaming up with Reigns has fans buzzing about the possibility of a future WrestleMania showdown. Rollins and Reigns, both former Shield members, have clashed in epic battles over the years, but a new rivalry would be even more intense, given the years of twists and betrayals that have led to this point.
