Former World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins has not appeared on WWE television since his title match loss to Roman Reigns, his former Shield teammate, at the second night of WWE SummerSlam. Although he is currently absent from “WWE Raw,” Rollins remains active by making appearances on ESPN during the NFL season. On the show “Waddle and Silvy,” he discussed both football and his possible return to wrestling, emphasizing that he is in no rush.
“I’m just taking my time right now, focusing on other things,” Rollins explained. “When the time is right, I’ll come back. Recently, I traveled to South America to participate in several non-televised events for fans in South America and Mexico. The crowds were incredible, and their passion for professional wrestling is unmatched.”
Rollins described performing for those fans as a special experience and hopes that his appearances encouraged WWE leadership to increase their presence in the region. In an interview with Sports Business Journal, he disclosed that he has three years remaining on his WWE contract but did not specify when he might retire.
Additionally, Rollins is contracted for a fixed number of appearances with ESPN for shows like “Good Morning Football.” He shared that he enjoys balancing his work in sports media alongside his wrestling career for now.
