Seth Rollins continues to see the silver lining in certain situations.
Rollins hurt his knee at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event last weekend. His match against LA Knight went to an improvised finish after doctors checked on him. During the Evolution post-show press conference, Triple H spoke about Seth Rollins’ current condition. He said Rollins traveled to WWE Evolution to support his wife, Becky Lynch, and would be in Birmingham the next day to undergo an MRI for his injury.
However, Seth Rollins says he couldn’t have the MRI during a guest-hosting gig on Tuesday’s episode of The Rich Eisen Show. Rollins said that despite traveling to Birmingham on Monday, he didn’t undergo the MRI because his knee was too swollen to determine the cause of the issue.
Despite that, Rollins knows how the injury happened. He explained that when he attempted a moonsault, he felt his knee “pop and buckle” on the landing. Rollins said he is still scheduled to undergo more screenings soon in Los Angeles. While he doesn’t have a firm timeline, he expects he will be “out for an extended period of time.”
Despite missing time, Rollins said that the silver lining of the situation is that he gets to spend more time at home with his daughter, Roux, while he recovers from the knee injury.
Seth Rollins’ knee injury had a domino effect on Saturday Night’s Main Event
Seth Rollins’ knee injury resulted in a few changes in WWE’s plans at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event. This includes the impromptu finish of the match, but also affected the timing of some of the segments that followed. According to a new report from Fightful (via Fightful Select), one of the audibles included the main event. Goldberg’s post-match speech also got cut off early due to WWE having a hard out time on NBC.
