He also shot Reigns, saying he had never faced an opponent like Knight before. Therefore, fans have been anticipating a showdown for ages when two of the top stars in WWE clash for the first time. Currently, Roman Reigns is untouchable in his position in WWE. However, according to fans, LA Knight is the top contender to dethrone Reigns.

LA Knight is on a roll currently, as he is coming off two big victories. At Fastlane, he teamed up with John Cena to defeat Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa and win the match for their team. In a recent episode of SmackDown, Knight pinned Solo Sikoa clean in the main event of the night. Only Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso have managed to defeat Solo; therefore, it is a big accomplishment for Knight.
