More good news, you say? Having The Bloodline hospitalise AJ still keeps the seat warm for LA to return and be announced as Cena's saviour. That'll make LA Knight look like a million bucks, and it'll show off just how incredible his rise in popularity has been with the core fanbase too.

Pop incoming.

Some folks on socials seem to be peeved that Jimmy Uso's in or out story with Roman Reigns/The Bloodline at large has been iced for now, but that's something WWE can always return to when it suits. For now, seeing Jimmy and Solo kick lumps out of stars the size of JC is perfectly fine.

Again, Knight is about to get a monster pop when he rushes out to save the day. It's regrettable that couldn't happen on Friday night, but his health is clearly paramount. Nobody wanted LA to miss the show, that's for sure. He's one of the most over workers WWE has, and he'll prove it soon.
