Out of action and recovering from an injury for the past few months, Seth Rollins recently made his WWE return at Elimination Chamber; however, despite the return, Rollins has not been cleared for in-ring action.
Recently appearing on Good Morning Football and addressing his return, Rollins shared the latest update on his in-ring clearance (H/t Fightful).
“I’ll tell you what, I’ll give the (Kansas City) Chiefs credit on this. They were a little more synchronized than my masked men were. The masked men were all over the place. There was a lot of jumble, a lot of two left feet going on in there. The Chiefs were more synchronized. However, I gotta say, one of these plays worked! And the other one didn’t!” Rollins said.
“Alright, we executed to perfection. We got in there, we protected Seth Rollins, we confused everybody and we got out of there, and that is what we had to do because Seth Rollins, that’s me, I’m not cleared yet. I can’t get into any real physicality. I gotta protect this shoulder for maybe another couple weeks or so and then we’ll see if we need these masked men, if we need all this trickeration or not.”
Further speaking, he opened up about the masked men shuffling segment on RAW, which was created to confuse Logan Paul and Austin Theory.
“You know what? I was just hoping nobody lost a shoe,” Rollins said while laughing. “I was like, hopefully nobody falls over or nobody lost a shoe… When you’re dealing with a lot of bodies like that and a lot of moving parts in the ring, I was just hoping nobody blew out an ACL. I was hoping nobody lost a ligament in the knee there.”
Rollins suffered the injury at Crown Jewel 2025 during his match against Cody Rhodes while performing a coast-to-coast headbutt. He has remained out of action since.
