The latest episode of “WWE Raw” had one burning question to answer in terms of WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins. The champion suffered an injury last week and was looking at time spent on the sidelines. Although the crowd felt temporarily relieved when Rollins stepped in with his usual funky aura and kick-started the night in style, the dark gloomy cloud reverted with him voicing a hard truth.

The Visionary tore his MCL during a highly physical title defense against Jinder Mahal, leaving his WrestleMania future in complete jeopardy. Tonight, as promised, he came clean with his current health update.

In the middle of his promo, Rollins confessed he was helpless after finding out that he was unable to bend his knee. He also voiced his worries about missing out on WrestleMania this year. The crowd busted out a loud ‘No’ chant. While he showed appreciation for the love, he confessed it might take three to four months for him to completely recover as the doctors were looking to conduct an MCL surgery.

 

However, the workhorse champion doesn’t deserve to receive a setback at this point of time in his career.

Seth Rollins’ WrestleMania absence will make no sense: Explained

Rollins has been simply nailing his championship run so far attending all the live events. His claim to be a better champion than the Tribal Chief made sense when he put his World Heavyweight Championship on line a few times more than Reigns ever did with his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in the past six years. Even before, Rollins became the reigning champion, he put in an arduous effort to rise to the helm and earn his prize.

Now if WWE makes him vacate his championship spot due to the absence and take an alternative road, it would be devastatingly heartbreaking for The Visionary and us as well. Most possibly things won’t move to that point and Rollins’ WrestleMania dream continues to breathe.

To the relief of the millions, The Architect later on accepted Gunther’s challenge of clinching his belt at the grandest stage of them all and vowed to safeguard his honor one more time.

It was not the first time Rollins got sidelined and missed WrestleMania with an injury. But we sincerely hope the history won’t repeat itself.
