Seth Rollins Plans to Attend Major WWE Event Amid Injury Hiatus

Seth Rollins may be sidelined with a torn rotator cuff, but the Visionary just confirmed he won’t miss one of the biggest WWE events in history—John Cena’s final match.
Rollins, who’s currently out of action, revealed during an interview on The Rich Eisen Show that his travel plans include a stop in Washington, D.C. for WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event on December 13, 2025, where Cena is scheduled to wrestle his retirement bout at the Capital One Arena.
While talking about his Chicago Bears fandom, Rollins casually dropped the news when explaining his weekend itinerary.
“So, also breaking news. I’m going to go to my first Bears game of the season coming up.”
When asked which game, he added:
“Cleveland. The Cleveland game.”
And then came the Cena mention:
“And then I’m going to the Packers game. I’ve got to—John Cena is—yeah, we’re going to do some traveling. We’re going to stop through Chicago for the Cleveland game just because we have a nice little route back from D.C. after John Cena’s last match.”
That places Rollins at Cena’s final match just one day before the Bears host the Browns at Soldier Field. While it’s not a confirmation of an on-screen return, it’s clear Rollins won’t miss this historic send-off.
In a separate interview on Something’s Burning, the former World Heavyweight Champion gave fans a timeline for his return—and WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas is firmly in his sights. The two-night mega show is set for April 18 and 19, 2026, and Rollins says he’s targeting a February return to start “locking in” ahead of WWE’s biggest event.
“Uh, gosh — it’ll probably be gradual. I don’t even really know. My guess is about 8 to 12 weeks of, ‘Okay, now I have to stop eating like an a***.’ Probably 12 weeks. Plus, we’ll be moving right into WrestleMania season, which is when I — you know — 12-day weeks. April. Yeah. Yeah, that’s April. So I’m hoping like around February, after all the holiday stuff, I can start to be like, ‘Okay, lock in. No more BS.’ Probably after the Super Bowl and stuff, I would say. Like give myself a month before I come back-ish. Maybe — I don’t even know. You know, they say six months, so this could be April.”
For now, the WWE Universe can expect to see him in D.C. as part of Cena’s final chapter—one legend saying goodbye while another gears up for a major comeback.
