LA Knight endured a rough night on the December 8 episode of WWE Raw, leading to significant speculation regarding his future with the company. After losing to Logan Paul and suffering a four-on-one beatdown by The Vision, Knight was ambushed backstage to close the show.
According to Fightful Select, Knight was not at 100 percent during the broadcast. Despite the heavy physicality of the match and the multiple segments involved, the report indicates that he pushed through a health issue to complete his obligations.
“It was claimed that LA Knight battled through an unspecified sickness on WWE Raw. He ended up performing,” the report stated.
Rumors Of Punishment Dismissed
The segment sparked rumors that Knight might be on his way out of the company or facing disciplinary action. However, sources within WWE have shut down these claims completely. Knight remains under contract, and it is described as “a standard story beat that will be revisited” rather than a method to write him off.
Additionally, speculation that Knight was being punished for holding a “We want LA Knight, not Jey Uso” sign last month was dismissed by creative sources. One source noted the illogic of such a theory, given his recent booking success.
