WWE has major plans for Seth Rollins' return - Reports

WWE reportedly has major plans for Seth Rollins' return from injury. Rollins suffered an injury during his victory over Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel 2025 and was written off television earlier this year.

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Seth Rollins is pushing to compete at WrestleMania 42 next year in Las Vegas, Nevada. There is a possibility that Rollins could be cleared in time for The Show of Shows, but it is not a guarantee that he will be able to compete. The report also noted that Rollins could be in line to battle Bron Breakker at WrestleMania if he is able to return to the ring on time.

Rollins was the leader of The Vision faction alongside Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed earlier this year. However, the faction betrayed him with a brutal attack as a way to write him off television as he recovered from injury. The veteran had to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship as well, and CM Punk won the vacant title last month at Saturday Night's Main Event by defeating Jey Uso.

WWE star Seth Rollins shares update on his recovery

WWE RAW star Seth Rollins recently shared an update on his recovery from his shoulder injury.

Speaking on The Rich Eisen Show, the 39-year-old disclosed that he recently got his brace taken off and is on track with his recovery. Rollins added that it felt good to walk around like a regular person as well.

"We're on track. Yeah. Yeah, I got the brace off like last week, middle of last week. So, it was nice. It's nice to walk around like a regular person. I know there's a lot of skepticism in your question, TJ. But you can consult my surgeon... I'm feeling alright. It's nice to be able to get around without the brace. I'll say that. We're on track," Rollins said.
