Seth Rollins welcomes all challengers.
Seth Rollins has stated many times that he is willing to defend the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against anyone on any brand. He's already traveled to NXT to defend the title against Bron Breakker since winning the title at WWE Night of Champions.
Speaking to USA Today at the ESPYs, Rollins said the WWE Raw roster is "filled with talent" with Rollins naming the likes of Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and more. Rollins stated he wants to face them all, and that includes Cody Rhodes.
"I would love for Cody Rhodes come try to take it from me," Rollins said. "If he can survive Brock Lesnar, I would love for him to try to. I'm better than I've ever been; he don't stand a chance."
Rhodes defeated Rollins three times in 2022, including in a Hell in a Cell match.
Rhodes has praised Rollins for the job he's done with the WWE World Heavyweight Title, but that title would not be finishing the story for him. You can find Cody's full thoughts on the title by clicking here.
