Seth Rollins’ recent injury has shaken things up in the WWE world. During a match against LA Knight at the July 2025 Saturday Night’s Main Event, Rollins faced a leg injury that cut the bout short. Reports confirm this is a real injury, not part of a storyline.
Wrestling expert Bryan Alvarez from the Wrestling Observer shared that the injury forced WWE to change the last 40 minutes of the show abruptly. Something planned for later couldn’t happen due to this unexpected turn of events.
This injury also raises questions about Rollins’ Money In The Bank briefcase. Although he has until next June to cash in, it’s uncertain how this will affect his plans while he recovers.
Despite the setback, the match continued and LA Knight secured a victory with a BFT, contrary to earlier expectations that Rollins would win.
Interestingly, injuries are not new to wrestling, but they highlight the physical risks involved. According to a 2022 study by the American Journal of Sports Medicine, professional wrestlers are 70% more likely to suffer injuries than other athletes in contact sports. This statistic underlines the challenges faced by performers like Rollins and emphasizes the need for safety measures in the ring.
As fans react to the news on social media, many express their concerns but also share their support for Rollins. It’s a reminder of how deeply fans connect with wrestlers, seeing them not just as performers but as individuals.
