Details On Seth Rollins Injuries Revealed

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins has provided an update on the condition of his back ahead of Payback 2023.

At Saturday’s (September 2) premium live event, Rollins will defend his gold against Shinsuke Nakamura.

Fans were left to speculate about what was said between the duo when Nakamura whispered something to Rollins on the August 14 episode of Raw, which appeared to affect the champion.

It was later revealed that Nakamura told Rollins ‘I know about your back’, with Rollins dealing with a number of back injuries in recent years.

Speaking on WWE After The Bell, Rollins explained the natures of his back injuries, stating that he has fractures in two vertebrae in his lower back, which can be painful during flare-ups.

Discussing his injuries, Rollins said:

“My back sucks. I’ve had these injuries for four or five years now. I have two stress fractures in the lowest vertebrae you can possibly have in my lower back and occasionally they flare up.

“If they accrue too much damage, it can become extremely painful and it can be very difficult for me to get through matches and it can be very difficult for me to get up for the morning activities for days sometimes. So there is absolutely a danger in that.”

Rollins has also shared his honest thoughts on the ‘void’ in the WWE women’s division, which you can read more about right here.
