As noted before, Seth Rollins has been out of action for WWE since this past October’s Crown Jewel: Perth event due to a torn rotator cuff injury and surgery.
A recent episode of the ESPN First Take show featured Seth Rollins as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Rollins providing an update on his recovery from his torn rotator cuff injury and the possibility of him showing up in the Men’s Royal Rumble match at WWE’s Royal Rumble 2026 event in Saudi Arabia.
“Pump the brakes on me participating in the Royal Rumble. I’m not there yet. I just got my rotator cuff done in October. I have a couple months left to go. I wish I could get myself in there, but that’s not going to be the case.
I’ll give it away. I’m not going to be at the Rumble. I just can’t. I would love to be in there and dump all those dudes over the top rope and punch my card to WrestleMania, but the doctors are not going to let it happen this time around, unfortunately.”
