Seth Rollins On Who Came Up With Idea For Him To Cash In Money In The Bank At WrestleMania 31

The Money in the Bank contract can take a WWE Superstar’s career to the next level and over the years fans have seen some very interesting cash-ins. Edge was the first to cash-in and he set the precedent for how it could be done, but many consider Seth Rollins cash-in during the main event of WrestleMania 31 to be the best cash-in so far.

During a recent appearance on My Love Letter To Wrestling, Seth Rollins explained that he came up with the idea for the cash-in months before WrestleMania, and he waited until the time was right to pitch the idea.

“I had the idea to do the cash-in a couple of months before WrestleMania. So probably January [2015], December [2014]. I’m riding in the car with Cesaro, Claudio Castagnoli, and we’re booking the territory as we do, and I’ve got these ideas and I’m running them by him. He’s got his ideas, and we’re just trying to come up with some stuff, and it seemed like a good idea, but I had to find the right time to put the bug in somebody’s ear.”

Seth Rollins went on to explain that he thought cashing in during Roman’s match with Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania would be a good way to build up not just himself, but Roman Reigns as well.

“I thought it was a great opportunity to create a moment unlike any we’ve ever seen. I thought it was a great way to build myself, but also to build Roman [Reigns] and give him somebody to chase. I just didn’t think the time was right, I didn’t think the audience was ready for that victory, and fortunately for me, I think people saw it that way as well.”
