Fightful Select is reporting that LA Knight was originally set to be part of the contract signing in the main event segment involving Jimmy Uso, Solo Sikoa, John Cena and AJ Styles.
It’s being reported that LA Knight was pulled from the show due to a medical change. It was noted that Knight being pulled from SmackDown had nothing to do with Vince McMahon.
