Seth Rollins comments about his back injury

Seth Rollins has been WWE's workhorse over the past two years. He's been durable for most of his career, with the exception of a knee injury that required surgery when he was the WWE Champion in 2015.

In a backstage interview on RAW, Rollins opened up about his back injury and how it affects his career.

"I do have 2 fractures in my lumbar spine," Rollins said. "I have been living with that injury for over four years and it does not get better by itself. As a matter of fact, it gets worse. The truth is I don’t know what the endgame is, I don't know how much longer I am going to be able to do this at the level I'm currently running at."
