Earlier this week, it was announced that WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins had suffered a torn MCL and a partially torn meniscus. Prior to the show, WWE was planning for Rollins to face CM Punk at WrestleMania. At the moment, According to Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE is still planning for the match to take place, assuming Rollins does not require surgery to fix his injury. Should Rollins need surgery, he would likely miss WrestleMania. It is not clear what the new plan would be if Rollins is out of the match.

Opinion: That makes some sense and now the only thing WWE can really do is hope that Rollins is able to make it to WrestleMania.
