Well, folks, it seems Seth Rollins isn’t just causing chaos in the WWE ring these days—he’s now being ejected from football games. That’s right! The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion found himself in the middle of a sideline scuffle at Sunday’s Colts vs. Bears game in Indianapolis. But this wasn’t just a case of fan excitement; Ty Hilton, former Colts wide receiver, knocked Rollins right onto the field like it was the Royal Rumble. And the best part? The Colts-friendly crowd went absolutely wild when Rollins was ejected. Apparently, even the crowd in Indianapolis loves a little bit of heel heat.
Now, this probably wouldn’t be as juicy if WWE wasn’t already neck-deep in crossover events with other sports. We’ve seen NBA stars like Tyrese Halliburton get involved with NXT, overseeing title contract signings, so it wouldn’t surprise anyone if Rollins’ NFL tussle somehow ends up as fuel for a new storyline. WWE Raw is coming to Indiana on September 30, after all, so it’s entirely possible this Rollins vs. Ty Hilton drama isn’t over just yet.
And speaking of WWE Raw, Rollins has been absent from the red brand for a hot minute, recovering after being squashed (quite literally) by Big Bronson Reed. The man took multiple Tsunami splashes in recent weeks, and if you know anything about physics, that’s not good for your well-being. But fear not, Rollins fans—your guy isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Despite his recent bumps and bruises, WWE locked him down to a multi-year contract extension this summer.
Rollins’ absence from Raw also has roots in a knee injury suffered in January, which left him working a lighter schedule leading into WrestleMania. In a twist more dramatic than a soap opera, he lost his World Heavyweight title to Drew McIntyre, who was then dethroned by Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase. So, if you think Seth’s not motivated to make a splashy return, think again—he’s got revenge on his mind, and apparently, a little NFL beef now, too.
