The huge amount WWE star Seth Rollins paid for extravagant jacket donned on Monday Night RAW
The latest glitzy wardrobe choice from WWE star Seth Rollins, with 'The Architect' donning a blue and gold jacket on Monday Night RAW, set the accomplished professional wrestler back a whopping $13,500. The 'Golden Peacock' long coat, made by clothing brand Rastah, was worn by Rollins as WWE's flagship weekly show aired worldwide on Netflix. Rollins is one of the biggest stars in the WWE with his character known for wearing colorful outfits that differ with every appearance. The latest wardrobe choice went viral for its distinct design. Rastah's website has the coat's value, alongside each coat being made to order, with a production time of around 60 days. That means Rollins has his on-camera outfits well planned in advance. The coat also features tiny specks of green and pink on the animals. The 'Monday Night Messiah' matched his long coat with white pants and black boots. Rollins delivered a promo wearing the jacket with allies Bron Breakker and Paul Heyman in tow, with an adversary in Sami Zayn. Rollins needed to unbutton his jacket to end the segment and deliver his signature curb stomp to the head of Zayn, leaving his rival laying. Rollins, whose outfit may have been inspired to double with an audition for the title role in the next Broadway revival of 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat', recently cemented his status as one of WWE's top guys. The 38-year-old won his second WrestleMania main event of his career earlier this month by defeating longtime rivals CM Punk and Roman Reigns in a triple-threat main event. Heyman's alliance with Rollins began at the Las Vegas spectacular with him siding with the former world champion over his previous clients in Punk and Reigns. Rollins is expected to team with Breakker in a tag-team match against Reigns and Punk in the near future, with WWE's next premium event, Backlash, taking place next Saturday, May 10.

Seth Rollins makes statement with $13,500 designer coat and ruthless new faction on WWE Raw
Image via WWE Seth Rollins is no stranger to bold statements, both in the ring and in his wardrobe. But on the April 28 episode of WWE Raw , 'The Visionary' took things to another level - unveiling a lavish $13,500 (approx. ₹11.3 lakh) coat while forming a brutal new alliance with Bron Breakker and Paul Heyman. Rollins made his entrance in a long, striking blue coat adorned with golden peacocks and floral motifs. The garment, designed by Pakistani luxury brand Rastah, quickly went viral on social media. Known as the 'Golden Peacock' long coat, the made-to-order piece comes with an equally extravagant pair of matching trousers priced at $920. While Rollins' fashion grabbed headlines, it was his partnership with Breakker and Heyman that delivered the real shock factor. Flanked by his new allies, Rollins opened the show by proclaiming that he represents the future of WWE - and that the future starts now. Sami Zayn declines offer, then pays the Price In a dramatic turn, Rollins offered fellow WWE Superstar Sami Zayn a spot in the new faction. However, Zayn refused to align with the trio, accusing Rollins of hypocrisy and stating he would never follow someone who betrayed his own values. FULL MATCH: Sami Zayn suffers Bron Breakker Spear-fest and a Seth Rollins Stomp: Raw, April 28, 2025 The refusal set the stage for a brutal main event. Zayn faced Bron Breakker in a hard-hitting contest that ended prematurely after a series of devastating spears from Breakker forced the referee to call off the match for Zayn's safety. But the assault didn't stop there. Rollins stormed the ring post-match and delivered a crushing Curb Stomp to Zayn, leaving his former friend motionless as WWE officials rushed in. This episode marked a clear turning point for Rollins, who has not only realigned himself with one of WWE's most powerful minds in Heyman, but also backed his words with brutal action. His new faction seems set on domination, and with Breakker's raw power and Heyman's cunning strategy, the group is already sending shockwaves through the WWE Universe. And while fans debated his $13,500 coat online, Rollins made it clear he's not just changing his style - he's changing the power structure in WWE. As SummerSlam approaches, all eyes will be on this dangerous new trio - and whether anyone in the locker room can stand in their way.
