He was attacked by the Vision on RAW the next night and was written off from TV. Since then, the Visionary hasn’t appeared on any WWE show. Many fans expected him to return at the Royal Rumble this month in Saudi Arabia. However, Fightful Select has reported that The Visionary won’t be there at the Rumble, and many in the company don’t even expect him to be there.

“He at least claims he won’t be at the Royal Rumble. Most in WWE did not expect him to be physically ready for it,” Fightful Select reported.

In fact, Seth Rollins himself said this week that he won’t be able to make it to the Royal Rumble. While speaking at ESPN’s First Take this Monday, The Architect said that he won’t be returning to Rumble, as the doctors haven’t cleared him yet.

“I’ll give it away, I’m not going to be at the Rumble. I just can’t.I would love to be in there and dump all of those dudes over the top rope, punch my card to WrestleMania, but the doctors just are not going to let it happen this time around unfortunately,” Rollins said.

However, many fans didn’t buy Rollins’ comments on face value, especially after his injury stunt at SummerSlam last year. He had faked his knee injury for nearly three weeks before revealing it to be a work, only to stun the fans at SummerSlam and cash in his Money in the Bank contract on CM Punk. It now remains to be seen when The Visionary will be back in the promotion.

Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns will appear at WWE Royal Rumble 2026 PLE

While Seth Rollins might not be there, legends like Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar will be there at the PLE in Saudi Arabia. While the company had revealed Roman’s appearance a few days back, Lesnar made the revelation himself by calling Pat McAfee during his show.

Apart from Lesnar and Reigns, the Attitude Era legend Chris Jericho is also expected to return to WWE at the Royal Rumble 2026. Jericho left the promotion in 2018 and has been with AEW for the past six years. His contract with the Jacksonville-based promotion has expired, and he is now reported to make his final return to the Stamford-based promotion.
