Seth Rollins has been absent from WWE TV since October 2025 after he had to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship.

The Visionary suffered a shoulder injury during his match against Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel. Following that, he was forced to vacate the title and take time off WWE TV.

While his surgery is done and he is on a recovery journey, he has yet to return to WWE TV. The timeline set for his return is sometime before WrestleMania 42.

Recently, Netflix Sports announced that The Visionary would be the on-air talent on Skyscraper Live.

I’m great. I’m wonderful. I’m enjoying the time off to an extent. Took a couple weeks to kind of wrap my head around having to forfeit my World Heavyweight Championship, but it’s been good. The time off has been nice. Get to spend time with our daughter, getting to talk American football, watch my wife be the greatest of all time. it’s not been too bad. Looking forward to getting back whenever that happens.
