Seth Rollins has been pulled from this weekend's WWE house shows after injury his knee on this Monday's Raw.

Randy Orton will replace Rollins on the shows. There is still no word on how long, exactly, Rollins will be out for, having picked up a suspected knee issue in his World Heavyweight Title defence against Jinder Mahal on Monday.

PWTorch's Wade Keller reports that WWE sources are staying silent on Rollin's injury, refusing to comment on the situation. What this could mean is entirely open to interpretation.

Keller was the first to report on Rollins' injury after Raw, saying Seth had to be helped to the back afterwards. Later, it was reported that Rollins was seen walking on the knee backstage, though he had been due to undergo an MRI to determine the injury's severity.

A long-term injury for Rollins could have serious WrestleMania 40 ramifications. As World Heavyweight Champion, he is almost certain to play a prominent role on the supercard, with a match opposite the recently returned CM Punk speculated. Nothing has been announced regarding 'Mania and its biggest matches as of yet, though.
