Seth was riding high when disaster struck in November 2015 during a house show match with Kane. There, he suffered nasty tears to his ACL, MCL and medial meniscus, and the injury led to a prolonged period on the sidelines. That, as documented in Rollins' WWE 24 doc on the Network, meant he missed WrestleMania 32.

It wasn't all bad.

Despite wallowing in his own misery and frustration over missing the year's biggest payday, Seth managed to keep himself busy with other projects during his time off. A few months in (once the pain had subsided), he actually found himself loving life. He'd been so busy on the road that he hadn't stopped to think of what it might be like to relax.

Rollins bagged a few movie roles, including Sharknado 4 and Armed Response, and he also got to unwind away from WWE's hectic scheduling for the first time in years.
