Paul Heyman addresses the Seth Rollins injury situation from WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event

As seen during WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on July 12th 2025, LA Knight defeated Seth Rollins with a BFT after Rollins hurt his knee. Since the match, there have been conflicting reports about the legitimacy of Rollins’ injury.

While speaking to SHAK Wrestling, Paul Heyman addressed the situation with Rollins…

“Seth Rollins has until next June to cash in the Money in the Bank contract. If his leg fell off in the ring, they would reattach it and he’d heal by next June. So until we’re crashing into that deadline, I don’t really see the big deal… I also kind of chuckle on the inside about how big of a deal was being made.”

“Pro wrestling was behind the times for many years. And you know the whole thing was if you get hurt, if you don’t work, you don’t get paid. So if you got hurt, you try to cover it up. I think it is a far more compassionate look for the for the longevity of the performer that we do have these protocols in place and I think the protocol in place on Saturday… enabled Seth Rollins to get out of the ring with whatever injury he sustained, instead of further aggravating that injury and making it 10 times worse.” (quotes courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
