Seth Rollins has confirmed that he is not yet fully cleared to return to the ring, but hopes it happens in a couple of weeks. Rollins made his return from shoulder injury at WWE Elimination Chamber, taking out Logan Paul in his revenge quest against The Vision. Since then, Rollins has been utilizing his army of masked men to steer clear of the group and stay safe, so there hasn’t been any physical contact with him yet.
Rollins appeared on Good Morning Football in his regular guest stint spot and was asked about this week’s Raw opening segment in which he played switcheroo with a number of masked men to avoid Paul and Theory. He noted that he’s not cleared for “real physicality” yet. You can see highlights below (per Fightful):
On His Masked Men:
“We executed to perfection. We got in there, we protected Seth Rollins, we confused everybody and we got out of there, and that is what we had to do because Seth Rollins, that’s me, I’m not cleared yet. I can’t get into any real physicality. I gotta protect this shoulder for maybe another couple weeks or so and then we’ll see if we need these masked men, if we need all this trickeration or not.”
On WHat He Was Thinking Of During the Shuffle:
“You know what? I was just hoping nobody lost a shoe. [laughs] I was like, ‘Hopefully nobody falls over or nobody lost a shoe’… When you’re dealing with a lot of bodies like that and a lot of moving parts in the ring, I was just hoping nobody blew out an ACL. I was hoping nobody lost a ligament in the knee there.”
