Seth Rollins Cashes in His MITB Contract on CM Punk, Wins World Championship

There has been plenty of speculation leading up to WWE SummerSlam 2025 on Seth Rollins potentially returning at the PLE and cashing in his Money in the Bank contract and all of that talk proved to be totally true.

The CM Punk vs Gunther match delivered several epic moments, one of them being the 'Ring General' reversing a 'GTS' attempt to turn it into a power bomb. The brutal match left Gunther bleeding and CM Punk eventually hit the 'GTS' two more times to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. But what was expected to be a moment of celebration turned into one of shock and despair when Seth Rollins decided to cash in his Money in the Bank contract. The 'Visionary' appeared amid reports of a long-term absence due to knee injury, dropped his crutches and took off his brace before storming to the ring. He beat up a tired CM Punk with the briefcase before cashing it in and winning the title. John Cena Seemingly Returns to Being a Babyface Before Defending Undisputed WWE Title Against Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2025 (Watch Video).
