Backstage Update Emerges On LA Knight’s WWE Absence

TLDR

LA Knight has been absent from WWE television in recent weeks after appearing to move toward a feud with GUNTHER before WrestleMania, though plans shifted when GUNTHER moved to SmackDown to target Cody Rhodes instead. According to Fightful Select, sources within WWE described Knight's absence as a "non-story" with no major issue behind it, stating it's not related to injury, contract disputes, releases, or pay issues, but rather due to rapidly changing creative direction for multiple wrestlers following WrestleMania.
