Pro-Wrestling Illustrated has unveiled its annual "Top 500" list, and Seth Rollins came in at #1.

The selection process is based on achievements during the evaluation period of July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. WWE Superstars earned the top four spots on the list this year, with Rollins being followed by former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan, United States Champion AJ Styles, and current WWE Champion Kofi Kingston.

The Beastslayer has fallen out of favor with some fans of late, but there's no denying that he's delivered some superb in-ring performances over the last year, and is clearly at the top of his game.

Rollins joins Bret Hart, “Stone Cold” Austin, Triple H, and John Cena as the only Superstars to earn the No. 1 spot twice. “Those guys obviously are elite,” Rollins told PWI. “They are in a class all their own. They are Hall of Famers. So, to be mentioned amongst them is pretty special.”

What do you guys think? Does Seth Rollins deserve the top spot? Sound off in the comments.
