Match Outlook
As per a Fightful Select report, the future of Rollins’ return is currently unpredictable. Rollins is expected to remain absent from WWE matches for a while now. There has been no permanent timeline given for him to recover. However, given the injury, it is expected that he could remain out of the ring for nearly six months or a year, or even more, if his shoulder requires surgery.
Currently, the plans for WWE’s WarGames have gone for a toss. Theory was reportedly going to join The Vision as its fourth member. The team was rumored to compete in WarGames’ Match at Survivor Series.
Reports suggest he could be out for 6–12 months, or longer if surgery is required.
