WWE Rumor Roundup - Hall of Famer's daughter released, Update on a Superstar's retirement, Seth Rollins' future - 15th May 2020

#3. Backstage update on Seth Rollins' in-ring future following Becky Lynch's pregnancy

Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch are expecting their first child together and the timing of the revelation has caught everyone off guard.

Becky Lynch will take an extended hiatus from professional wrestling and there have been rumors going around that Seth Rollins is under no obligation to wrestle and he too may take some time off.

The rumors, however, are not true.

Sportskeeda's Tom Colohue told host Korey Gunz during the Dropkick DiSKussions podcast Seth will continue to wrestle as he is obligated to work due to the nature of his contract - that needs to be respected. The Monday Night Messiah will only be able to take a break if his contract allows him to do so, which would also need to be backed by the approval of the WWE management.

Tom explained:

There was some speculation and a report out saying Seth Rollins is under no obligation to wrestle. That's just not true. Seth will still be wrestling, meanwhile, Becky Lynch is obviously going to go home. Seth will take time when his contract allows it and WWE management is supportive of that. He is under the obligation to wrestle because he does have a contract that needs to be respected. I know that some people are opting out to wrestle at the moment but it's for a very different reason and Seth isn't that guy. He's going to choose to continue wrestling because he is Seth Rollins and that's what Seth Rollins does.
