WWE superstars Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch are the latest high-profile athletes to have their home burglarized while they were away performing their jobs. Thieves broke into their home in Southern California Tuesday morning and reportedly walked away with around $10,000 in cash.
The couple were not home at the time of the break-in. Both Rollins (real name Colby Lopez) and Lynch (real name Rebecca Quin) were in Providence, Rhode Island to perform on WWE Monday Night RAW at the Amica Mutual Pavilion.

How did this happen?
According to NBC Los Angeles, the break-in was called in to police at about 2:30 a.m. on Tuesday. Rollins, according to TMZ, was the one who reported the crime.
Upon arriving at the couple’s home in Playa del Rey, police officers reported seeing a smashed glass sliding window at the rear of the house. So far, no arrests have been made and neither Rollins nor Lynch have commented on the crime.
Rollins and Lynch are just the latest victims
In February of this year, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced that it had created a “coordinated operation spanning multiple jurisdictions to investigate burglaries that targeted the homes of several professional athletes.”
The operation stemmed from a series of home burglaries of professional athletes including Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Linval Joseph, Kansas City Chiefs players Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, NBA players Luka Doncic, Karl-Anthony Towns, Mike Conley and Bobby Portis, and Dallas Star hockey player Tyler Seguin. All of them had their homes broken into and items stolen while they were playing in games.
At that time, the FBI stated that the burglaries were “believed to have been orchestrated by members of South American Theft Groups, also referred to as SATGs.” Since then, the FBI has been relatively silent in regard to the progress of the operation in apprehending the criminals involved in the suspected burglary ring.
Pro athletes continue to be targets
In May, Canadian soccer player Jordyn Huitema was the victim of a home invasion. She was at her and her boyfriend, Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez’s home when armed robbers broke into the house. According to the Seattle Times, Mariners pitcher Luis Castillo also had his home burglarized twice, while Dodgers pitcher Blake Snell and former Seahawks defensive back Richard Sherman were also recent victims of robbers.
