Chances are very low of a return before April

“It’ll probably be gradual. I don’t even really know. My guess is eight to 12 weeks of, ‘Okay, now I have to stop eating like an asshole.’ Probably 12 weeks. And then we’ll be moving right into WrestleMania season. I’m hoping around February, after all the holiday stuff, I can start to be like, ‘Lock in. No more BS.’”

Seth Rollins said the following about the potential date of his return, “Probably, after the Super Bowl and stuff. Give myself a month before I come back. I don’t even know. They say six months, so this could be April.” which makes it pretty clear that he will be unavailable for WrestleMania 42 and it is a terrible news for the fans.
