LA Knight is currently one of the fans favorite superstars in WWE. There has been speculation about him winning the Money in the Bank briefcase even before he qualified for the match. Considering this popularity spike of Knight, Booker T has opined on his views on the hottest star. The WW Hall of Famer stated that Knight is a rare talent, and WWE should pull the trigger on him as soon as possible.
Speaking on the “Hall of Fame” podcast with Brad Gilmore, Booker T told WWE to stop messing with Knight. He said that Knight is a guy who is rare and organic and has figured it out. Booker T also highlighted that the crowd shows massive support for him and that people enjoy his presence. According to the WWE veteran, the company should understand its next step in making the star a superstar. He believes they should utilize his talents and reward him with the A-game that he deserves.
Booker T then stated how easily LA Knight has made a name for himself with sheer talent in much less time. He reflected on how the company had never chosen to push, but it is the crowd that will make WWE do so. The former World Champion then made a bold statement, saying WWE should simultaneously think of attrition while making a superstar out of Knight.
LA Knight has qualified for the Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match by securing a win against Montez Ford on SmackDown. While he has six tough competitors around him, the betting odds still favor him to win the contract over social media celebrity Logan Paul. Paul shares the podium with LA and could be a bigger threat to the emerging superstar.

Booker T opines on Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breakker
NXT color commentator Booker T has opined on his views on the incredible match between Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker. Being one of those people who witnessed it live in the arena, Booker stated that it was more entertaining for them. He also said that the action during commercial breaks also contributed a lot to the match.
The WWE Hall of Famer said that fans got to know who Breakker really is and provided tougher competition. The 25-year-old was cool and collected throughout the match, being an actual professional. Even Rollins took the match to another level, fighting in his bruised and battered manner. The Visionary displayed his high-flying skills despite his injuries. It was not expected from him but came in as delight for fans.
Seth Rollins’ successful title defense at NXT Gold Rush has made his way for yet another match this coming week. He will square off against Finn Balor at Money in the Bank for the World Heavyweight Championship. Besides, the next week will see him defend his title against Damian Priest on a special episode of SmackDown.
