WWE Name Believes Company Should Pull The Trigger On LA Knight

WWE

Roman Reigns’ next challenger for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship was confirmed on Friday, with Reigns set to defend the title against LA Knight at WWE Crown Jewel on November 4.

Over the past few months, Knight has become one of the most popular stars in WWE, with many hoping to see Knight eventually capture a world championship.

Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T discussed the match, noting that he believes the company should pull the trigger on Knight on the show.

He said:

“I don’t know if they’re gonna pull the trigger on him right now. But I tell you what, I never try to write the show. But I can tell you this, if they were to pull the trigger on LA Knight for the surprise, and how many people would go nuts.

“My thing is, I’m a fan, just like you guys. I’m wishing for LA Knight to get the big push. One thing about this business I always talk about, the sand in the hourglass, the clock is ticking, and you want to capitalize right now. You don’t want to wait until tomorrow to capitalize on something like LA Knight. Because that fire’s gonna burn out. It’s not gonna be this hot forever for LA Knight. It’s just like a wrestling match. You want to go home when the fire is as hot as it can be. White hot, go home. Send ‘em home, man.

“That’s what I’m saying, as a booker. So I think that’s the same thing with LA Knight. He’s hot, man. He’s white-hot. If they were to pull the trigger on LA Knight, I think the people would go nuts. I really do. You talk about Intercontinental Championship, I’m talking about the world championship, I’m talking about the WWE Title. If they put it on him right now, people would go nuts. They really would.”
