Seth Rollins Ranked #1 In PWI 500

Seth Rollins is the best professional wrestler on the planet, according to Pro Wrestling Illustrated.

The WWE World Heavyweight Champion has topped the 2023 PWI 500. The evaluation period saw Rollins initially feud with Matt Riddle before Seth went on to win the United States Championship, holding the title for 47 days until he dropped the gold to Austin Theory at Survivor Series 2022. Rollins then remained in the United States Title picture until early 2023, at which point he had a brief programme with Logan Paul that culminated in a win for Rollins at WrestleMania 39. 

Since WWE's biggest show of the year, Rollins has established himself as the top star on Monday Night Raw, becoming the inaugural WWE World Heavyweight Champion at Night of Champions in May. Rollins has continued to receive praise as one of the best wrestlers in all of WWE.

Rollins' former Shield stablemates Roman Reigns and Jon Moxley round out the top three. There has been some criticism of the Top 10, though, as Will Ospreay (regarded by many as one of the best wrestlers in the world) once again missed out. 

Rollins previously topped the PWI 500 in 2015 and 2019.
