Apple Watch Pairing Issues IOS 14.0.1

Is anyone else experiencing pairing issues with Apple Watch and iOS 14.0.1? I see a number of complaints about this on public forums.

I have an Apple Watch Series 4 GPS+cellular that begins to pair with my iPhone 11 Pro Max on iOS 14.0.1 and the phone tells me the watch has an update.

It tries to get the update, but it fails complaining that there is no internet connection when clearly there IS an internet connection. We've tried connecting to wifi hotspots, business wifi, and home wifi all with good bandwidth and high speed connections. It still fails.

This simply has to be a bug or at least I hope it is and not some way to obsolete perfectly good Apple Watches.

Rumor is that it will pair on any version of iOS 13. I'm not able to update this particular phone to IOS 14.2 beta. I'll have to submit a bug report too.
Even I am facing the same issue, I just updated my iPhone 7 to 14.01. and not my Series 2 watch does not connect and says there is no internet to check the software update, tried the 2.4GHz network settings and also mobile data.. same issue.. Need a fix immediately.
