WORLD Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) world heavyweight champion Seth Rollins suffered tears in his right ACL, MCL, and medial meniscus that will sideline him for six to nine months.
The WWE confirmed in its website an ESPN report by Jonathan Coachman on Twitter that Rollins’ injury is legitimate and not part of the story line when he got hurt during an event in Dublin, Ireland.
