La Knight secured a swift victory over Seth Rollins in the main event of Saturday night’s WWE show, during which Rollins appeared to sustain a serious knee injury. The injury happened when Rollins performed a move from the ropes onto La Knight but landed awkwardly on his leg, aggravating his knee. After the incident, Rollins was attended to by ringside doctor Paul Heyman and, despite his injury, insisted he could continue the match. However, La Knight soon gained the upper hand and won with a simple BFT, following a previous counter where Rollins had prevented La Knight from winning the Money in the Bank Ladder match.
Once the match concluded, medical staff helped Rollins off the ring, with a video shared by Rick Ucchino from Takedown, SI showing Rollins being carefully assisted due to his back. Rollins, known as “The Visionary,” had previously suffered severe knee injuries, including tears to his ACL, MCL, and meniscus in November 2015, which forced him to relinquish the WWE Championship. Throughout his career, he has dealt with various leg and back problems but nothing as severe as his initial injury.
Fan Take: This incident is concerning for WWE fans because Seth Rollins is a pivotal figure in the sport, and his health significantly impacts storylines and match quality. His potential injury could alter upcoming events and highlight the physical risks wrestlers face, reminding fans of the sport’s demanding nature.
