OriginalSeth Rollins, a professional wrestler with the WWE, holding up his Money in the Bank briefcase at the Garrett Coliseum on 10 January 2015. Rollins cashed in his briefcase during WrestleMania 31, giving him a shot at the title against defending champion Brock Lesnar and challenger Roman Reigns. He pinned Reigns and took the title.
Reason
Here's an underrepresented subject at FPC: professional wrestling. I was surprised to find this image when I was reading up on this year's Wrestlemania, and joy of all joys, it cleaned up really well. This has EV for both the wrestler (Seth Rollins) and a type of match (Money in the Bank ladder match). All in all, a very encyclopedic image.

  • Support, this is actually an image I feel can be supported for feature status. It might need some work, but I feel we lean far too much towards the highbrow and this is an FA image in the overall. Thoughts?--Mark Miller (talk) 00:03, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Quite inclined to agree. Support. Not perfect, but for an underrepresented subject that, by its nature, has difficult lighting, I think it's well over the bar. Adam Cuerden (talk) 03:36, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Per Adam and Mark: this is pretty dramatic photo which illustrates its (rather weird IMO) topic well. Nick-D (talk) 02:29, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - per all of the above. It feels a little soft in places, but given the venue, probably difficult to avoid.--Godot13 (talk) 05:44, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Looks like this guy doesn't mind showing he wrestles for cash. Brandmeistertalk 17:14, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
