UPDATED: Conflicting Reports On Legitimacy Of Seth Rollins’ Injury

UPDATE: A new report has some conflicting information over whether Seth Rollins’ knee injury is legitimate or not. As reported, Rollins suffered what most sites have reported as a legitimate knee injury at Saturday Night’s Main Event during his match with LA Knight. Triple H said at last night’s WWE Evolution post-show that Rollins was headed to Birmingham to get an MRI done.

However, POST Wrestling’s John Pollock noted on Monday morning that one source had indicated that the injury was a work. On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that everyone is insisting that Rollins’ injury is legitimate, but that he tried to get it confirmed and someone “would not confirm it to me” (h/t to Wrestling Inc).

Meltzer proceeded to note that he “tried to get a confirmation from someone if John Pollock was mistaken, and they would not say that.” Bryan Alvarez suggested that the match at SNME could have been used to write Rollins off of TV due to another legitimate injury that he has and that WWE sources were just “covering their bases” in terms of whether they would confirm or not.

To be clear, all indications from WWE publicly, such as Triple H’s comments are stating that it is a legitimate injury.

ORIGINAL: As noted over the weekend, Seth Rollins suffered a legitimate injury during his match against LA Knight at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, resulting in various changes to the show that ultimately led to LA Knight winning and Goldberg’s closing speech being cutoff.

PWInsider reports that WWE is expecting to have the official diagnosis for Rollins’ injury within the next few days, with the fear backstage being that the injury is a major one. Nothing is confirmed yet, though.

Rollins is expected to be at RAW tonight, but will also be in Birmingham, Alabama for an MRI today.

Triple H said during last night’s WWE Evolution post-show media scrum that the Rollins injury “doesn’t look good.”

Rollins is no stranger to major injuries. In 2015, surgery to deal with an ACL/MCL/meniscus injury caused him to miss WrestleMania 32, and he also had various knee issues heading into WrestleMania 40.
