Seth Rollins To Miss WWE Television Due To Marvel Movie Filming

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Seth Rollins is at a pretty decent spot in his WWE career. While he hasn't held a world championship since 2019, he has always been regarded as a major player in the company and seen as a top star. In about a week, Seth Rollins will face AJ Styles at Night of Champions to determine who will be first to hold the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Will Seth Rollins Be Another Part-Time Champion?

A few days ago, news broke that Seth Rollins had landed a role in Captain America: New World Order, the fourth Captain America film in the MCU. Rollins reportedly plays a villain in the film who is a member of the underground "Serpent Society."

While this role is obviously a great opportunity for Rollins and could potentially lead to even bigger roles in Hollywood, it has a lot of wrestling fans questioning what the future holds for Rollins as a WWE superstar.

In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that Seth Rollins would be missing next week's rendition of Monday Night Raw due to the fact that he'll be on set filming. It is unconfirmed whether Rollins will be able to attend the next episode of Raw, which will be the follow-up episode of Night of Champions.

WWE introduced the World Heavyweight Championship to help remedy the fact that they don't have a world champion on weekly television due to Roman Reigns' part-time schedule. It would be unfortunate, if not very ironic, if the inaugural World Heavyweight Champion also picked up a part-time due to opportunities in Hollywood.
