Worrying Update on LA Knight’s WWE Future
LA Knight might not be a part of WrestleMania this year.
WWE is still deciding on the WrestleMania 42 match card behind the scenes, and according to multiple reports, there have been several changes lately.
According to a Q&A session held on March 9, 2026, WrestleVotes revealed that Knight’s place on the WrestleMania match card is not yet fixed. His spot depends on whether Bron Breakker is medically cleared to compete in time for the event.
If Bron Breakker is cleared before WrestleMania 42, WWE is reportedly planning to book a match between Breakker and Seth Rollins on the grand stage. In that scenario, Knight could instead answer the open challenge issued by Brock Lesnar.

However, if Breakker is not medically cleared in time, WWE could shift its plans and book Brock Lesnar vs. Seth Rollins instead. The storyline would revolve around Lesnar seeking revenge for Paul Heyman after Rollins attacked him on an episode of WWE Raw.
“It really starts with Seth Rollins and who his opponent’s gonna be. WWE’s waiting on Bron Breakker. Then you get Bron and Seth, Brock Lesnar vs. LA Knight, and The Vision against The Usos.”
“But if Bron Breakker can’t go, now you’re looking at Seth Rollins. Is it Brock Lesnar avenging Paul Heyman’s attack? We’re waiting on Brock Lesnar because of Bron Breakker. This open challenge would be open until they got word on whether Bron is ready or not.”
“They could bring out Seth or LA Knight. But LA Knight might be trouble here creatively if it’s Brock vs. Seth and The Vision vs. The Usos. The odd man out unfortunately will be LA Knight if Bron Breakker can’t go.”
Bron Breakker was injured on the February 9 edition of Monday Night Raw.
