As soon as Seth Rollins was attacked and taken out on WWE Raw by his own faction and later images of him in a sling emerged, fans and analysts started questioning whether this was the real deal or just another brilliant setup. The worry deepened when news broke that Rollins would need surgery, making it clear this is more than just a plot twist. Still, things are complicated as earlier this year, Rollins confessed to faking a knee injury as part of a big cash-in scheme.
Recent reports suggest Rollins is likely facing shoulder or possibly rotator cuff surgery. The buzz is that WWE's creative team is taking the injury seriously and isn't treating it as a trick. The word is a torn tendon needs reattachment, which means he'll be out for quite a while.
