It was reported by many outlets that Zayn was refusing to return to WWE after undergoing a dental procedure. However, as part of this week's Talking Smack, AJ Styles was building up their match at Clash of Champions when he revealed the real reason behind his absence:

"He hasn’t been doing anything. From what I hear, he’s a brand new father. When your wife starts getting big, so do you. You eat right with her because you don’t want to make her feel bad so you just gobble it up right beside her, whatever she wants to eat, we’ll eat together. Listen, Sami has probably been rubbing her feet because when you’re pregnant…he hasn’t been doing nothing but rubbing feet and eating!” (via WrestlingNews)
