In light of all the chaos and releases that WWE handed down over the last couple of weeks, LA Knight was noticeably absent from last night's WWE Raw nor was he even mentioned. This absence did not go unnoticed by fans and it generated a lot of online speculation about his status with WWE.
BodySlam+ reports that WWE's original creative plans for Knight had him set to feud with Gunther in a "short program", however, the company ended up pivoting and moving Gunther to Smackdown to challenge Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes.
As a result, Knight's creative direction for the short term is unknown but he is very much still with the company for those wondering if he was also released. Knight was spotted in Minnesota over the weekend doing promotion work for WWE with SummerSlam coming up in the city and he threw out the opening pitch at the Twins game as well.
