In a surprising turn of events, it seems that WWE Superstar LA Knight will not be Roman Reigns' next opponent after their clash at WWE Crown Jewel 2023. With Reigns not participating in WWE's Survivor Series this weekend, fans were looking forward to seeing who would step up to challenge the "Tribal Chief" next. However, according to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it appears that Paul "Triple H" Levesque has different plans in mind.

While some within WWE believed that Knight should have another shot at facing Reigns, it seems that his path will take a detour. The specifics of Triple H's plans remain undisclosed at this time, leaving fans speculating about who Reigns will square off against at the first PLE (Pay-Per-View Live Event) of 2024. The question remains as to whether this new opponent will be connected to the ongoing storyline leading into the "Road to WrestleMania."

Knight recently challenged Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WWE's Crown Jewel, putting on an impressive performance. However, it was ultimately Reigns' victory, facilitated by interference from Jimmy Uso, that secured his title reign. Many fans expected this inconclusive finish to lead to a continuation of the storyline between Reigns and Knight, especially given Knight's subsequent feuds with members of The Bloodline.

Having already defeated Uso and setting his sights on Solo Sikoa, Knight has remained in a prominent role within WWE. Additionally, his popularity as a merchandise seller has soared, further indicating that he could be on the verge of entering the title scene. However, it seems that his encounter with Reigns was meant solely for the Saudi Arabian audience, at least for now.

As in the ever-changing world of professional wrestling, plans can always shift and evolve. While LA Knight's feud with Roman Reigns may have taken an unexpected detour, fans can never rule out the possibility of an eventual rematch between the two powerhouses. For now, WWE keeps its audience intrigued as they eagerly await the announcement of Reigns' next challenger and witness the exciting twists and turns of the wrestling universe.
