The early prognosis for Seth Rollins' injury: "Doesn't look good."
WWE chief content officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque addressed Rollins' injury during his press conference following Evolution. He said it's "a little bit inconclusive" of what injury Rollins suffered on Saturday, July 13, but the outlook is not good. Levesque expects to get an answer on Monday, July 14 when Rollins sees a doctor.
"Will get an MRI and hope for the best," Levesque said. "See where we can go with that."

What happened to Seth Rollins?
It's a gloomy update one day after Rollins appeared to suffer a devastating injury during a televised match. Rollins faced LA Knight at Saturday Night's Main Event, and during the match he attempted a moonsault in the ring and his knee buckled. He immediately went down and grabbed his knee as he backed into the corner of the ring, with the referee and Paul Heyman checking in on him.
A ringside doctor eventually came and talked with Rollins. After the brief discussion, Rollins got back to his feet and LA Knight hit the BFT to set up the pin for the win. It came off as a quick adjustment to the ending.

After the match, people inside the arena took video of Rollins getting help leaving the ring, and one video on social media showed Rollins' clearly frustrated, with the wrestler barking expletives as he was assisted.
PWInsider.com reported the finish to Rollins and LA Knight was changed when Rollins was hurt, as he was set to win the match. The severity is unknown, but Rollins' injury is real and not part of a story.
While the extent of Rollins' injury is still unavailable, it likely is a major injury for "The Visionary" and could potentially mean some big changes to storylines. Rollins is Mr. Money in the Bank, able to cash it in for a championship opportunity at any time, and there was speculation he would do it at Saturday Night's Main Event.
Plus, he is still riding the momentum of his WrestleMania 41 victory, and was leading a stable with Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed and Heyman. The menacing group was also involved in storylines with Jey Uso, Sami Zayn and Penta.
Seth Rollins injury history: Constant knee injuries
The injury is just the latest one to affect Rollins' knee, as its something that's plagued his WWE career.
In November 2015, Rollins tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), medial collateral ligament (MCL) and meniscus in his right knee during a live event in Ireland. He required surgery, and was forced to vacate the WWE World Heavyweight Champion as he missed seven months. Rollins then re-tore the MCL in the same knee in January 2017, but didn't miss much time.
He tore the meniscus in his left knee in January 2024. Even though he was injured, Rollins still appeared in WWE as World Heavyweight Champion while taking part in the build-up to WrestleMania 40. He wrestled both nights of the event despite the injury, and was instrumental in the Cody Rhodes vs. The Rock and Roman Reigns storyline. He missed two months of action following the event.
