You might want to make sure it is set properly. See the "Manage Always On settings" section in:

Use the Always On feature with your Apple Watch Series 5 - Apple Support'


The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


The next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup:
