World Title Swipe: Seth Rollins Claims CM Punk's WWE Championship

In a shocking turn of events at SummerSlam 2022, Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract to steal the World Heavyweight Championship from CM Punk [2][3][5].

The dramatic moment came after Punk's emotional victory over Gunther, marking him as a prolific ring master [1]. The celebrations did not last long as Rollins, pretending a bad knee injury, entered the scene on crutches and holding his Money in the Bank briefcase [2][4].

This cash-in, unplanned in the original SummerSlam schedule, took a chaotic turn, leading to a major brawl involving other superstars [6]. The interference disrupted Punk's emotional victory, drawing praise for the compelling storytelling it created [3].

The feud between Punk and Rollins began at the title defense fight against LA Knight. In a surprising move, Punk attacked Rollins, leading to the disqualification of Knight and a technical victory for him [7]. This was reminiscent of Rollins' "Heist of the Century" at WrestleMania 31 [8].

Prior to the title win, Punk had a highly competitive match against Gunther. The fight, which lasted for 30 minutes, showcased their dominant styles [9]. Big Daddy Walter also gave powerful hits and multiple submission attempts during his fight with Punk, but the Cookie Master emerged victorious [10].

The latest episode of WWE featured the best match of the night between Punk and Gunther. Despite the powerful hits and submission attempts from Gunther, Punk finished the fight with two GTS (Go to Sleep) [11].

With this victory, Punk became emotional, expressing his joy after winning the title after more than a decade [12]. The World Heavyweight Championship now rests with the Second City Saint, but it remains to be seen how long he will hold onto it before Rollins seeks his revenge.
