After battling 10 other superstars, Seth Rollins and AJ Styles came out on top as the finalists for the brand-new World Heavyweight Championship. The two stars battled it out for almost 22 mins inside the ring. Both stars were looking pretty strong during the match, but only one could go home as the champion.

The superstar who stood tall after the match was Rollins. Obviously, becoming the brand-new champion is a tremendous honor. And Triple H was the one to bestow the honor upon him, thus repeating history.

As reported earlier, the World Heavyweight Championship bout was the opening match for the event. After ‘The Visionary’ won his match against ‘The Phenomenal One’, ‘The Game’ came inside the ring to crown him as the brand-new champion. This moment would have surely made Rollins nostalgic as the exact same moment took place 11 years ago.

On July 1, 2012, he became the inaugural WWE NXT Champion after defeating Jinder Mahal in the finals. That time, too, HHH put the title around his waist alongside Dusty Rhodes. He shares a lot of history with the WWE Creative Head. Therefore, it won’t be an understatement to say that at one point in his career, he was Hunter’s guy.
