2025 has been the year of Seth Rollins in WWE.

The current WWE World Heavyweight Champion has wrestled and won in the main event of WrestleMania 41, won the Money in the Bank briefcase, successfully cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase on his arch rival CM Punk to win the world title, developed a brand new faction with The Vision, and much more.

Rollins is an MVP player in WWE and has been since joining the main roster in 2012. So what does the future hold for Rollins? He plans on being in the wrestling business for quite some time.

In an interview on Nightcap, Rollins spoke about his future in pro wrestling and revealed that he has a couple years left on his WWE deal. Rollins also said that he'll be involved in wrestling forever, but didn't commit to wrestling into his 50s.

“I don’t know if I want to do it into my 50s. I have a couple of years left on my contract in WWE. My daughter is four-and-a-half, almost five. I wouldn’t mind spending some extra time with her in a few years. We’ll see what happens."

Rollins continued:

"I love this business; I’ve given my entire life to it, it’s given me a great life. I met my wife through this business, I have my daughter because I met my wife through this business. I’m able to provide jobs at my wrestling school down in Iowa for other people. I’ve built a mini-empire out of this industry. I imagine in some capacity I will stay involved one way or another for as long as I can."

Seth Rollins is currently married to WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch. The two have worked together on-screen before, but have clicked better together as heels in The Vision faction.
