Seth Rollins addresses his absence from WWE television since SummerSlam 2026
Seth Rollins has been kept off WWE television since losing to Roman Reigns at SummerSlam 2026, although he returned to in-ring action during WWE’s South American tour earlier this month.
While speaking to ESPN Chicago, Rollins was asked if he could provide an update on his status with WWE. Here was Rollins’ response…
“Uh, no. I wish I could, honestly. I’ve been off WWE television since SummerSlam. Had a title match with Roman Reigns in Minneapolis, lost that match, and I’m just taking my time right now, kind of focusing on other things.
At the end of the day, you know, I’ll come back when the time’s right. I was able to go down to South America a couple weeks ago and do some non-televised events for the South American and Mexican fans down there, really fantastic crowds. I mean, just unbelievable. Their passion for professional wrestling, what we do, is unparalleled, and they’re not—they’re not spoiled like the American crowds, you know? They don’t get shows very often.
I think the last time we were in some of those towns was, six, seven, eight years ago. So, I mean, it was—it’s very special to be down there, and those fans showed up and showed out. And so, I hope that that was a sign to the higher-ups that we need to get back down there and do it a little bit more.
But, as for me and Monday Night RAW, I don’t know.”
