WWE is planning to have Seth Rollins compete in a big match at WrestleMania 42. The World Heavyweight Champion recently beat Cody Rhodes to win the Crown Jewel Title.

Since WrestleMania 41, The Visionary has been on an upward trajectory. He won the Money in the Bank briefcase and successfully cashed it on CM Punk at SummerSlam to win the World Championship.

He has kept the Title since then and had been dominating RAW with The Vision. But following the implosion of the faction on RAW, there is uncertainty around The Revolutionary's future.

Speaking on the Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer shared an update on WWE's plans for Rollins at WrestleMania 42.

"Seth Rollins was tentatively scheduled to wrestle Roman Reigns at WrestleMania. I don’t know this, but I have been told enough things to where I expected there would be a turn on Seth Rollins at some point because the whole thing with this faction was that it was not about Seth Rollins. It was about Bron Breakker and making Bron Breakker the next Roman Reigns,” he said.

This match seemed to be the course for WWE, but with The Vision turning on their leader on RAW, things have been shaken up.

Seth Rollins was injured at Crown Jewel

After Crown Jewel, it was reported that Rollins was seen backstage with his arm in a sling due to an injury suffered during the match against Cody Rhodes.

On RAW, the World Heavyweight Champion confirmed that he beat the American Nightmare with one good arm.

A report from Fightful Select mentioned that details around Rollins' injury are kept under wraps so far, and it is unclear if he suffered a broken arm or a shoulder injury. The report adds that the WWE star would undergo more tests to evaluate the injury.

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
