LA Knight might be in the house for WWE RAW in Germany.
LA Knight has emerged as one of the most captivating WWE superstars of this era. The Megastar moved to RAW last year in hopes of ascending to the next level. However, he has been absent for a few weeks after being taken out by The Vision on RAW.
Moreover, he is rumored to return on this week’s edition of RAW in Germany. If that happens, here are five things he could do on tonight’s WWE Raw.
5. Retribution on The Vision
LA Knight was taken out of action due to a major attack by the Vision faction on RAW. If he returns to Germany, a logical course of action would be for him to seek retribution. He could do so by costing Bronson Reed and Austin Theory their scheduled tag team match against Penta and Dragon Lee on RAW.

4. Pursue the WWE Intercontinental title

With Dominik Mysterio currently absent due to a reported shoulder injury, there could be a scenario in which RAW GM Adam Pearce might vacate the title if the injury is very severe. This could see LA Knight return to go after the title, and potentially add another prestigious WWE championship to his resume.
3. Royal Rumble

As the 2026 Royal Rumble Premium Live Event draws close, every WWE superstar will be eyeing to participate in the Rumble match. LA Knight could return to RAW tonight to call his shot in hopes of punching his ticket to the main event of WrestleMania 42 by winning the 30-man Royal Rumble.
2. Major beatdown

LA Knight could have a monumental return to RAW this week. However, things might end up the same way as they did last time. With Knight being outnumbered by his arch enemies, The Vision, they could once again take him out and put him on the sidelines indefinitely.
1. Challenge CM Punk for the World title

After CM Punk successfully defended his World Heavyweight Championship against Bron Breakker on RAW last week, he was announced to appear on the show this week. The Best in the World could be interrupted by LA Knight, who could go straight up in his face and challenge him for the title as his next challenger.
