Two weeks ago, Bron Breakker challenged Seth Rollins for his World Heavyweight Championship. The following week, Rollins made a special appearance on NXT and accepted the challenge. He was pretty much excited to take a trip to his old home this Tuesday.
Unfortunately, a roadblock hit Rollins on Monday. The WWE Universe saw him getting injured on the Raw weekly show. Well, things are not looking good for Rollins. And it might cost him a big deal during his match against Breakker on the NXT Gold Rush.

Rollins looked pretty hurt on Monday Night Raw. But he is not the one to back out from a fight. Everyone was concerned about what his next move might be. And it looks like he is going to battle against Breakker despite being badly injured.
In a video shared by WWE on its Twitter account, ‘The Visionary’ clarified he will fight Breaker on NXT Gold Rush on Tuesday this week, regardless of his physical state. “A lot of questions floating around out there. Will I? Won’t I? Can I? Can’t I? I’m gonna be honest with you. They took me from the arena to get X-rays on my ribs,” he said.
He continued, “I don’t really give a damn what these doctors tell me because I don’t stop. And I don’t make any excuses. So Mr. Bada** Bron Breaker, I’ll be on NXT tomorrow, World Heavyweight Title on the line. And I’m not going all the way back home to lose.”
Injured or not, @WWERollins will be at @WWENXT and he will defend the #WorldHeavyWeightChampionship against @bronbreakkerwwe. @USANetwork 8/7c pic.twitter.com/XBRfJ0tnEa

With Rollins suffering a serious injury, it seems like the odds are against him. His injury can very well be a factor in making him lose to his upcoming challenger on Tuesday, all thanks to Finn Balor.

Last week, Rollins issued an open challenge for his World Heavyweight Champion. He was very much looking forward to the match this week. But it didn’t take place as Balor attacked him on Raw. It happened on a segment during Balor’s promo when Rollins interpreted him.
An irate Balor took out his frustration on the champ and hit him with three Coup De Graces, leading to a potential rib injury. He brutally ambushed the already injured star backstage as well. Rollins was fuming after being mauled by The Judgment Day member and is looking forward to getting payback at Money in the Bank.
