Update on LA Knight’s WWE status ahead of the 2026 Royal Rumble PLE

LA Knight hasn’t appeared on WWE television since the December 8th 2025 edition of WWE RAW when he lost to The Vision’s Logan Paul. Afterwards, Knight was attacked in the parking lot and Bronson Reed gave him a Tsunami on top of a car.

While there was speculation about Knight heading to Europe for WWE’s ongoing tour, he has yet to return. Fightful.com noted the following about him not appearing on RAW…

“To debunk ourselves, we were told LA Knight was not brought to Germany. He was on some internal travel plans, but wasn’t brought over.”

Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com provided the following update about Knight’s status…

“Knight was also taken out in an injury angle to set up coming back in a feud with Breakker & Reed. He was scheduled for the Rumble. Not sure if he’s back before then to announce he’s in the match but the idea was he’d be in the Rumble.”
