Seth Rollins has ruled out a Royal Rumble return.
The self-proclaimed "Visionary" and "Revolutionary" of WWE appeared on ESPN First Take for an interview on Monday, during which he confirmed he will not be competing at the WWE Royal Rumble premium live event this Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
“Pump the brakes on me participating in the Royal Rumble,” he said on ESPN First Take. “I’m not there yet. I just got my rotator cuff done in October. I have a couple months left to go. I wish I could get myself in there, but that’s not going to be the case.”
“I’ll give it away,” he continued. “I’m not going to be at the Rumble. I just can’t. I would love to be in there and dump all those dudes over the top rope and punch my card to WrestleMania, but the doctors are not going to let it happen this time around, unfortunately.”
