Seth Rollins is taking some time off.

Seth Rollins competed on both nights of WWE WrestleMania XL. On the first night, he and Cody Rhodes lost to Roman Reigns and The Rock in the main event. The next night, Rollins lost the World Heavyweight Championship to Drew McIntyre. He also ran in during the main event match between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns. Rollins did not appear on the April 8 episode of WWE Raw.

In the Daily Update on April 8, Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported that Rollins would be taking time off after WrestleMania XL. Per Meltzer, the hope as of Monday morning was that it would only be about four weeks.

Meltzer elaborated on Wrestling Observer Radio by stating that he heard Rollins would not be out “that long,” but he needed to rest his knee. Rollins sustained a torn MCL and a partially torn meniscus in January. He returned to the ring shortly before WrestleMania XL.

Fightful Select also reported that Rollins would be taking some time off.

Ahead of WWE WrestleMania XL, Rollins said that his knee was at full strength. Check out his comments here.

Fightful will provide more information as it becomes available.
