A WWE star has commented on fan support following a major win, expressing gratitude for the people who have gotten behind him.

LA Knight is now one of two wrestlers who could be John Cena’s final opponent, with Knight defeating Jey Uso in their Last Time is Now tournament semifinal match on the December 1 Raw episode.

Speaking on WWE Raw Recap, Knight noted that “damn near idiotic” self-belief brought him to where he is today.

Also expressing gratitude for his passionate fans, LA Knight said:

“I appreciate every single bit of what they give me, I feed off of that stuff.

“As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t be in the position I am without them if I’m honest, especially with how everything blew up a couple of years ago and how it has continued on, the people made me.

“I can’t take that away from them, and I thank them to the hilt. At the same time, Let’s say at some point they’re not with me, I can’t worry about that, I’ve got to do me, I’ve got to keep doing me.”
