The attack sidelined Knight for a few days and also forced him to miss the Night of Champions Premium Live Event, even though he wasn't booked on the show. Knight's current rival, Rollins, ensured that CM Punk didn't walk out of Night of Champions as the new Undisputed WWE Champion as he and his crew interfered in the match. One would assume that if Knight had been healthy, he would have handled them in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
