Injury recoveries leave WrestleMania 42 plans uncertain
Summary
– Rollins and Breakker aggressively rehabbing after injuries
– Breakker recovering from emergency hernia surgery
– Rollins sidelined with torn rotator cuff and lingering issues
Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker are reportedly doing everything possible to return to WWE television, but their timelines remain unclear.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, both stars are rehabbing intensely as they work toward comebacks. Their absences come at a crucial time, especially with WrestleMania 42 plans still taking shape.
Breakker is recovering from emergency surgery to repair a serious hernia suffered during a Raw segment. Estimates for his return range from three months to as long as six, leaving his WrestleMania status in doubt.
Rollins is recovering from a torn rotator cuff suffered at Crown Jewel, an injury that forced him to vacate the World Heavyweight Championship. He has also been dealing with neck and back issues, adding more uncertainty to his return.
The October 2025 betrayal angle, which saw Breakker turn on Rollins, was expected to lead to a major feud, but injuries derailed those plans. WWE has since adjusted storylines while both remain sidelined.
With WrestleMania 42 approaching, a return from either star would be significant. For now, both Rollins and Breakker remain focused on rehab and getting back as soon as possible.
