WWE Champion Seth Rollins Injured, Future Plans Uncertain

Potential changes to Royal Rumble match speculated as recovery timeline could disrupt WWE's plans.

Seth Rollins, the current World Heavyweight Champion, suffered a legitimate injury during his match against Jinder Mahal on January 15, 2024, but was later seen walking on his own.
Rollins' injury, specifically to his knee, could potentially disrupt WWE's plans if his recovery time exceeds three months.
CM Punk, who is scheduled to compete in the 2024 Royal Rumble, is currently the favorite to win. However, wrestling veteran Konnan believes it would be too soon to give him the title.
WWE Hall of Famer Booker T suggests that Rollins should retain his championship at least until WrestleMania 40 in April.
Triple H may add a major stipulation to the Men's Royal Rumble match, potentially making it a bout for the World Heavyweight Championship if Rollins' injury forces him to vacate the title.
