WWE Officially Replaces Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins

The big question right now is whether or not Seth Rollins is injured. If so, how does WWE deal with the World Heavyweight Championship? If not, is another ruse underway?

It so happens that The Visionary suffered an injury during the match against Cody Rhodes at Crown Jewel 2025. He was seen with his arm tucked inwards during the match and with a sling on the Monday Night RAW the next evening.

On WWE RAW, The Vision members turned on him, sparking conversations about it being a legitimate injury since Bron Breakker wasn’t supposed to turn on Rollins this early in the faction’s story.

Seth Rollins’ Japan Tour has been affected following WWE Crown Jewel

The World Heavyweight Champion and 2nd Crown Jewel Champion was supposed to have two high-profile matches during the Japan Tour on October 17th and 18th, 2025. He was to defend the title against CM Punk on October 17th, 2025, and take on the team of Shinsuke Nakamura, Jey Uso, and CM Punk on October 18th alongside Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.

The new plan is for The Best in the World to face Dominik Mysterio on October 17th, while Breakker and Reed will face Punk and Nakamura on October 18th.

Since WWE scrapped plans for Seth Rollins, The Visionary may be injured. In fact, a WWE Executive has confirmed that he is definitely injured.

On the other hand, backstage morale was affected the last time Seth Rollins faked the knee injury, which only a handful of people knew about, and some remain cautious about whether this is a work or shoot.
