Seth Rollins: Wrestling Prime or Near Retirement?

Seth Rollins, 39, is navigating the twilight of his extensive wrestling career. Despite feeling mentally sharp and physically capable, Rollins indicated during a recent ESPN interview that he is likely closer to the end of his nearly 22-year tenure in professional wrestling than the beginning. He acknowledged this reflection comes while he is recovering from shoulder surgery, which he underwent in October after suffering an injury at Crown Jewel. The surgery is expected to sideline him for at least six months.

Rollins' journey in wrestling began at 18 in his home state of Iowa. He gained recognition on the independent circuit before signing with WWE in 2010. His career has been marked by significant achievements and multiple injuries. Despite these challenges, Rollins expressed optimism about having "a lot left in the tank," suggesting his prime physical and mental condition allows for continued performance. He also shared a prediction for the upcoming Super Bowl, favoring the Seattle Seahawks over the New England Patriots.
