WWE superstar Seth Rollins issued an update on his knee injury, which he picked up against LA Knight at the SNME, on Rich Eisen Show.

The 39-year-old injured his knee during an aerial manoeuvre when Knight moved out of the way and needed assistance to leave the ring. He was helped backstage following the injury.

“I was doing a move that I do all the time – it’s a moonsault, a backflip," Rollins said.

“Monday, I was in Birmingham, Alabama, where our specialists are at. We tried to take a look at the knee through some imaging. It was a little too swollen, so we’re going to take another look," he said.

“Hopefully, in a week or two here in L.A. to try to get some sort of firm diagnosis and then we can go from there," the 39-year-old added.

“I am not a doctor, I only know my body and what I feel," Rollins said. “And what I feel, is that this is going to be me out for an extended period of time," he revealed.

“It is a bummer, but it is what it is. Our business moves on. This isn’t the first time that I’ve been injured, it won’t be the last time," the wrestler added.

“I’ve always got WrestleMania in the back of my mind. Can I make it back for WrestleMania? For WrestleMania season, the whole thing."

“My brain always goes there and I feel good about that, but beyond like a firm timeline, I just won’t know until we get a better answer on the MRI," he stated.

Rollins, however, was present at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, for the all-women pay-per-view WWE Evolution, where his missus, Becky Lynch, successfully defended her Intercontinental title in a three-way bout against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria.

Rollins, one of the most successful wrestlers in the modern era, has been plagued by numerous injuries throughout his career. While the extent of his latest injury is still uncertain, the WWE universe anxiously awaits further details regarding the condition of the star from Davenport.
