LA Knight reveals how Triple H got behind his character
LA Knight didn’t impress the WWE officials until his chants hijacked Triple H‘s address in Saudi Arabia. Anything before that was considered a fluke. Everyone was upset when WWE kept Knight off WrestleMania, especially when it was held in Los Angeles. Instead, he was booked a night before on SmackDown just to get thrown out of the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. There was a specific reason why WWE did that.
The people in charge thought that the groundswell wouldn’t last beyond a handful of weeks. They weren’t ready to place the bet on the former Impact Wrestling star. However, that misconception was soon banished. During the presser for the Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia, Triple H finally realized how crazily fans are pushing for LA Knight. They didn’t even let The Game speak for a while as the area erupted with the Knight’s chants.
During his chat with Daily Mail, LA Knight described it as the exact moment when he looked up to Triple H. The WWE CCO was left with no choice but to start preparing future plans for the prohibitive fan-favorite. Then, WWE went to the United Kingdom for Money in the Bank, and everyone had The Megastar at their fingertips.
The Megastar said, “I don’t think he had a choice after a while. After Saudi Arabia, they’re chanting it right in his face. And then in England, a lot of the questions are about me, and I almost saw his face.” To his credit, LA Knight overcame the typical WWE stereotype through his gift of gab and tangible charisma.

LA Knight needs to look out for The Miz
Last week, LA Knight traveled to Monday Night Raw. Fresh off his quintessential victory at SummerSlam, The Megastar was having a photoshoot until The Miz popped on the scene. That made the A-Lister fume in anger. Later on, both guys went on to have a fierce promo battle.
The 42-year-old passed on a savage diss when he referred to Knight as an Attitude Era cosplay. However, LA detailed how Miz’s career is in the toilet right now. After lashing out at each other, the A-Lister blindsided Knight, only to end up getting planted by the Blunt Force Trauma. On this Monday, Bryan Saxton interviewed The Miz, and the latter was asked about his verbal stampede with Knight.
Asking Byron to stop yelling ‘Yeah’ at him, Miz teased that he might come to SmackDown this week to even the game with Mr. Knight. That said, things would get interesting if Mike actually pulled up to Toronto. Notably, SmackDown is almost sold out, with over 14,000 fans expected for the show. It remains to be seen who runs amok this time around between LA Knight and The Miz.
