When it was first reported that Seth Rollins had suffered a shoulder injury during his match with Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel, some fans were skeptical. This was because earlier this year, as part of a storyline, he faked a knee injury to create a dramatic Money in the Bank cash-in return, fooling many in the process. However, it has since been confirmed that his shoulder injury is legitimate.
And now, just days after WWE announced he had vacated the World Heavyweight Championship, it’s understood he has undergone surgery, subsequently taking to Instagram to say, “Caffeine and clarity. See ya on the other side.“
While being one of WWE’s most prominent stars, Rollins has endured a series of injuries throughout his career that have repeatedly disrupted his momentum. Still, he has always battled back and regained his spot near the top of the card. Therefore, most fans expect him to return just as good when he fully heals and gets medical clearance, although whether this will be in time for WrestleMania 42 is unknown.
