WWE fans got a rare glimpse of Seth Rollins outside of the ring when he made an appearance alongside his wife, Women’s World Champion Becky Lynch, at the Kentucky Derby yesterday.
However, it was not his presence that caught attention, but rather his new beardless look that sparked a flurry of reactions on social media. WWE SmackDown star Chelsea Green was among those who couldn’t resist taking a jab at Rollins’ fresh face, comparing him to a character from the classic musical movie Mary Poppins.
The drama unfolded when media personality Ryan Satin took to Twitter to poke fun at Rollins’ clean-shaven appearance, prompting Green to respond with a humorous gif that left many in stitches. While the lighthearted exchange provided some comic relief, it also overshadowed the recent news of Rollins’ injury that has kept him sidelined.
As The Visionary recovers from a torn meniscus that required surgery, many are left wondering when he will return to action. WWE veteran Vince Russo recently weighed in on the situation, suggesting that the company could have come up with a more interesting way to write Rollins off WWE television.
On a recent edition of Wrestling’s Legion of RAW show, Russo proposed an alternative scenario where Rollins confronts Cody Rhodes on TV before taking time off, leaving fans with a sense of anticipation for his return.
While Rollins’ absence has created a power vacuum in the WWE, his recent loss of the World Heavyweight Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania XL has paved the way for new storylines to unfold. With Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank contract to become the new champion, the WWE terrain is shifting rapidly.
As fans eagerly await Rollins’ return, they can take comfort in knowing that his wife, Becky Lynch, is still reigning supreme as Women’s World Champion. With the WWE universe constantly in flux, one thing is certain – Seth Rollins will return, and when he does, the WWE will be ready to welcome back one of its most beloved and storied superstars.
