Seth Rollins has provided an update on his injury, recovery, and the potential timeline for a return to WWE.
Rollins suffered a shoulder injury in his match against Cody Rhodes at WWE Crown Jewel on October 11.
This led to him vacating the World Heavyweight Championship, and WWE having to change a lot of major plans for the imminent Survivor Series ‘WarGames’ event and heading into WrestleMania season.
On the latest episode of Bert Kreischer’s Something’s Burning show, Rollins was on as a guest alongside his wife Becky Lynch, and discussed his injury.
Rollins said:
“I’m trying to find the silver linings.
“I get to spend more time with my daughter, which is great. More time at home.
“Once I get this thing (cast) off, which is in like another month, then it might be full vacation mode for a little while before I lock in and have to start training to get ready to come back.
“It’ll probably be gradual. I don’t even really know.
“My guess is about 8-12 weeks of like, ‘Okay, now I have to stop eating like an asshole.’ Probably 12 weeks.
“Plus we’ll be moving right into WrestleMania season, so I’m hoping around February, after all the Holiday stuff, I can start to be like, ‘Okay, lock in, no more BS.'”
