Afterwards, Rollins took time away from the company to recover from surgery to repair a torn meniscus. Damian Priest won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship after cashing in his Money in the Bank contract after McIntyre beat Rollins at WrestleMania 40 to win the title and has since retained his championship on two separate occasions.
