During the main event on the December 8 episode of the red brand, a masked assailant interfered and attacked Knight, which directly led to Logan Paul picking up the victory. Things didn’t stop there, as The Vision brutally assaulted the WWE megastar after the match and put him out of commission. He has not been seen since.

Given this incident, there is a possibility that LA Knight might seek retribution against Paul Heyman and his crew upon his potential return to the squared circle. If this happens, he is likely to kick off his revenge by possibly putting Austin Theory out of commission, as the latter was the one who cost him in his match against The Merverick in the first place.

Following this, Knight could then focus on taking down the rest of the heels one by one. To spice things up, the creative team could have The Megastar interfere in the upcoming title match on January 5, 2026, costing Bron Breakker a potential World Heavyweight Championship victory over CM Punk as part of a blockbuster WWE storyline.

While the above angle is far-fetched, there is a possibility of it coming to fruition. That said, it is mere speculation at this point, and only time will tell if WWE plans to follow this path in the weeks ahead.

WWE could book CM Punk to defend the World Heavyweight Championship in a Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania 42

If the above scenario comes to fruition, the creative team may have LA Knight back in the World Heavyweight Championship picture. As a result, fans are likely to witness Punk potentially defending the title against Knight and Bron Breakker in a Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania 42 next year.

The Best in the World and The Megastar could still have unfinished business. Hence, it would make sense for the company to consider bringing Knight back and have him run it back with Punk. Since Breakker might seek a rematch after the 43-year-old potentially costs him on January 5, it may eventually set the stage for a three-way match for the gold.

If this happens, the trio could then engage in an intense feud on The Road to WrestleMania and set the stage for a blockbuster match at The Show of Shows. However, this angle too is just a speculation at this point.
