Just weeks after Liv Morgan was forced on the shelf in a heartbreaking moment, Saturday Night’s Main Event saw another devastating injury with major implications for the company’s biggest storylines.

Over the weekend, Seth Rollins landed badly on his knee – which he’s had issues with in the past – and hobbled to the corner.

After talking to referee Jessika Carr and a member of WWE’s medical staff,the bout was cut short and LA Knight picked up a quick win, with reports claiming they ‘called an audible’ by changing the planned result on the fly.

On Sunday night, after the all-women’s Evolution event, boss Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque gave a concerning a update on Rollins’ immediate future.

‘Tomorrow night on Raw, we’re gonna head down a new path, and I’m sure somebody here will ask about Seth. I’ll just say right now, little bit inconclusive,’ he said in a press conference. ‘Doesn’t look good.’

There had been reports that Rollins was seen backstage at Evolution, walking on crutches with a protective boot.

Levesque noted the current Money In The Bank contract holder was at Evolution to support his wife Becky Lynch as she defended the Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Lyra Valkyria and Bayley.

‘He came here tonight, he was not going to miss his wife’s performance,’ he added.

John Cena will defend the WWE Title against King of the Ring winner Cody Rhodes, and Queen of the Ring Jade Cargill challenges Tiffany Stratton for the WWE Women’s Championship.

As announced on SmackDown, there will also be a tag team match pitting Randy Orton and Jelly Roll against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul.

Netflix is the home of WWE in the UK.
