In fact, Rollins was originally meant to win the WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event match, but due to the injury, plans had to be changed quickly, affecting the rest of the night’s event.
Seth Rollins previously suffered a major knee injury in 2015, tearing his ACL, MCL, and meniscus during a live event in Dublin. The injury forced him to vacate the WWE Championship and miss over six months of action.
This development is concerning for fans and WWE management alike, as Seth Rollins is a key figure in current storylines.
The injury may impact upcoming shows, especially if it turns out to be long-term. LA Knight, who has been rising steadily in popularity, was not meant to win the match, but handled the situation professionally.
WWE is expected to issue a formal update soon regarding Seth Rollins’ condition and whether he will need time away from the ring to recover.
