The chaos generated after the beating suffered by LA Knight on Raw has sparked all kinds of rumors, from conspiracy theories to speculations about a possible WWE exit. However, the reality is much simpler: Knight is not going anywhere and his contractual situation is completely secure.

According to Fightful Select, Knight remains tied to WWE in the long term. The wrestler renewed in 2024 and still has several years left on his contract. That's why the company doesn't understand the commotion caused by his defeat against Logan Paul and the multiple attacks he suffered both in the ring and backstage during the January 7th Raw.

Internal sources consulted by the media pointed out that what was seen on television was simply another step in the story, designed to be resumed soon, without implying punishments or drastic changes in his status.

Theories circulating on social media were also debunked, such as the idea that Knight was being punished for holding a sign weeks ago that said "We want LA Knight, not Jey Uso". The creative team was clear: that alleged reason makes no sense, and they recalled that Knight had been scheduled to defeat Jey Uso, something that would hardly fit with a reprimand.

There are no details yet on what his immediate television future will be, but Fightful confirmed that WWE will continue the story and there is no indication of a departure from the company.
