A WWE source recently detailed LA Knight's current issues in the locker room.
LA Knight returned to the Stamford-based company in 2021 after having a short stint several years earlier. He spent about a year in NXT before making his main roster debut in mid-2022. He has since been an active competitor on SmackDown.
Despite being one of the most popular superstars on SmackDown, Knight is yet to receive a push in WWE. Although many thought he would win the Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Damian Priest was the one who emerged victorious. Knight also lost a United States Title Invitational Fatal Four Way last Friday. Hence, he is not booked for SummerSlam so far.

"He doesn't understand the WWE locker room yet. He'll get straightened out," the source said.
