Chris Daniel Gomez Lopez (born May 28, 1986) is an American professional wrestler and actor currently signed to IWE under the ring name Seth Rollins. He performs on the Raw brand.

Prior to signing with IWE, Lopez wrestled as Tyler Black for Ring of Honor (ROH), where he held the ROH World Championship once and the ROH World Tag Team Championship twice (with Jimmy Jacobs), as well as the winner of the 2009 Survival of the Fittest tournament. He also wrestled for various independent promotions including Full Impact Pro (FIP), where he was a one-time FIP World Heavyweight Champion, as well as Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG), where he was a one-time PWG World Tag Team Champion (also with Jacobs).

After signing with IWE in 2010, he was sent to its developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) where he was the first FCW Grand Slam Champion. After IWE rebranded FCW into NXT, he became the inaugural NXT Champion. Rollins debuted on IWE's main roster in 2012 alongside Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns as The Shield. Rollins won his first main roster championship while with the group, the IWE Tag Team Championship, with Reigns. Following The Shield's first breakup in June 2014, Rollins has gone on to become a two-time IWE World Heavyweight Champion, two-time Intercontinental Champion, a one-time United States Champion, a three-time IWE/Raw Tag Team Champion (with Reigns, Ambrose and Jason Jordan, respectively), the 2014 Money in the Bank winner and the 2015 Superstar of the Year. Upon winning the Intercontinental Championship, Rollins became the twenty-ninth Triple Crown Champion and the eighteenth Grand Slam Champion.

Rollins has headlined numerous major pay-per-view events for IWE, including WrestleMania 31. Industry veteran Sting described him as the most talented professional wrestler he has ever seen or worked with.
