Anytime there's a title-versus-title match in the works, you know that history will be made.
You don't typically see one man holding two belts, particularly in WWE. By the end of Sunday night, it seems all but certain that either Seth Rollins or John Cena will have two championships to his name—a first for the current world title lineage.
Outside of some sort of non-decisive finish, one competitor will go
home with nothing. Even then, both outcomes will be marked with some
kind of historical happening.
If Cena is successful, he will have rendered his current set of merch
outdated with a 16th world title reign—a feat that, as mentioned on Raw
last night, would put him on the same number as Ric Flair.
Meanwhile, if Rollins manages to capture the United States Championship, he'll put an end to Cena's
dominant run with that belt. We may have seen a lot of people kick out
of the Attitude Adjustment in recent months, but it's worth remembering
that Cena has taken on all comers and won.
It may have come out of nowhere, but this title-versus-title match has some serious weight behind it. We know that Rollins and Cena have excellent chemistry in the ring, but they've never met in a match with greater stakes on both sides than this one.
