Being almost three months removed from shoulder surgery, it remains unclear when we can expect to see Seth Rollins return to WWE programming.
Whenever Rollins’ return does happen however, fans will be expecting some major storyline development given the dramatic way he was written off TV back in October.
From kicking up new feuds with old rivals, to shock reveals that could end up sending storylines in a lot of fascinating directions — we’ve predicted some ways The Visionary could return to action.
Here are five potential return plans for Seth Rollins in WWE.
5. Austin Theory Reveal

While Austin Theory was revealed as the masked man that has been assisting The Vision this week on Raw, his true purpose in the group has not yet been revealed.
Regardless of what storylines ensue from here forward, by the time Seth Rollins returns from injury there could be a new narrative introduced.
If it were Seth Rollins directing Austin Theory’s actions throughout, it would be fascinating to see a dramatic reveal of Theory aligning with Rollins and turning his back on Paul Heyman and company.
Having been a secret operative all along, a babyface turn for both Rollins and Theory would make for an unexpected, but welcome twist.
