Seth Rollins Talks WWE Return
While chatting with Good Morning Football, the WWE World Champion was asked about whether he would be back for WM 40. His response was, “Oh WM 40, no problem!”
He notes, “We got this bad boy. We got this.” Rollins also states, “I’ll be back way before then, for sure.”
The WWE Champ goes on to say that tearing his MCL and meniscus “sucks” and “it’s not comfortable”. But he’s doing all the right things and going to rehab.
Rollins also states that “fortunately” he’s suffered a partial tear and not full tear, so they were able to avoid surgery for now. He adds that “We’ll see what happens after WM”, but notes that rehab is going great.
Rollins says that he’s feeling really good and hopes to return sometime in the next few weeks, well before ‘Mania. Sounds like he’ll be ready for the big event and to defend his WWE World Heavyweight title.
