Seth Rollins WWE return cancelled

Seth Rollins WWE return cancelled? The SmackDown Saviour had been advertised for the upcoming episode of Friday Night SmackDown.

It’s been over a month since the fans have seen the saviour of SmackDown on WWE TV. The upcoming episode of SmackDown was supposed to be his comeback episode. However, it seems that the WWE have now changed their minds.

Seth Rollins WWE return cancelled?

WWE advertised the return of Seth Rollins on Twitter. WWE on FOX announced that the January first episode of SmackDown would feature Rollins. The tweet however, has since been deleted implying backtracking on WWE’s part.

Given Rollins’ emotional tribute to Brodie Lee, it is possible that he has been given more time to grieve and come to terms with the loss. It also doesn’t help that he’s a new father, which means between the sudden and tragic death of his friend and his new responsibilities, he’s unlikely in the right headspace for a return.

We will have to wait until tomorrow night to see if he does return or not. It will be extremely disappointing for fans if he doesn’t. The fans will more than understand and respect his decision however.

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
