Top WWE Star Argues Seth Rollins Should Be In WrestleMania 39 Main Event

WWE

WWE star Becky Lynch has questioned whether Seth Rollins should be in the main event of WrestleMania 39 instead of Cody Rhodes.

In the final match of the April 2 show, Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes will challenge for Roman Reigns’ WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.

Speaking with Stephen A Smith on Know Mercy, Becky Lynch reasoned that Rollins has carried WWE on his back, so deserved the headline match:

“I think it’s going to be a great match. Roman has had an incredible run. Cody is in his infancy in this run. It’ll be interesting to see what happens.

“Cody has had a lot of history with my husband. Main event of WrestleMania. It’s going to be big. I don’t know that Cody is ready for it yet.

“I wonder if it should have been Seth Rollins in that spot. I wonder if he should have been walking out (in the main event).

“After everything that he’s done for the past several years. His whole career. He’s been carrying this company on his back. Cody walked away, came back, is getting it all. Maybe that should have been Seth Rollins.”

Claiming that her opinion is objective, despite Rollins being her husband, Lynch said:

“That’s not love, that’s an objective opinion. 52 weeks a year, the family has been making all the town. For the first half of that, I was main eventing all the shows.

“The second half of that, he was main eventing. Makes every town, is on every Raw, banger after banger after banger, to quote another famous Irishman Sheamus, shout out, love you.

“The Hell in a Cell match they had, Cody and Seth, incredible. He’s been the pillar of this company for a long time.

“He’s facing Logan Paul and he’s going to knock him on his ass this weekend and that’s going to be wonderful and spectacular. I don’t want to follow him because he always steals the show.

“Didn’t steal the show last year. Last year was Cody and Seth, and they had to follow me, and I think that was a little tricky for them.

“He’s going to have a banger. The fact is, that man has been the face of the company for a long time without getting the credit he deserves. I’m saying, I think he should be the main event.”

Rollins recently expressed a similar sentiment, arguing that he should be in the main event position, following his contributions to WWE over the past decade.

He also noted that he’s uncomfortable with the recent discourse surrounding himself and Cody Rhodes, which you can read more about right here.
