Is Seth Rollins injured? Potential reason for his WWE absence

Seth Rollins has been a workhorse ever since he became the World Heavyweight Champion at Night of Champions 2023. Throughout 2023 up until WrestleMania XL, The Visionary had several championship battles against top superstars, and defended the title to the best of his capacity.

Rollins lost the title to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania, and since then, he has not been seen on WWE TV. Usually, when superstars take time off WWE, it is to recover from an injury or to come back after a couple of months due to the creative not having anything from them. Considering how The Visionary is a top superstar, figuring out a storyline for him isn't too complex. So, the reason for him taking time off is injury.

However, Seth Rollins hasn't particularly injured a specific muscle or bone, but his body has been beaten down due to all the impact it took throughout his time as champion. He has had severe back and knee issues but he continued to fight through the pain to ensure the World Heavyweight Championship received the representation it deserved.

Furthermore, Rollins endured tremendous pain during Night 2 of WrestleMania 40 after Drew McIntyre started the match with a Claymore. It reached a point where Rollins informed the referee that he could not see and that his eyes were swelling. Nevertheless, he put up a fight for over 25 minutes and did his best to defend the title.

The Visionary's potential date of return is yet to be revealed. But the fans are already waiting to sing his theme song again.
