LA Knight's WWE Main Event Push Predicted by Hall of Famer
WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray has outlined LA Knight's best chance for main event success, suggesting a feud with Seth Rollins could propel the 43-year-old megastar into the spotlight. Knight, despite his popularity, has yet to secure a major push in WWE's upper echelon.
What did Bully Ray say about LA Knight's future?
On *Busted Open Radio*, Bully Ray discussed a potential scenario where Rollins defeats Roman Reigns at SummerSlam to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. He believes WWE could use Rollins to elevate Knight, citing their recent confrontation on *RAW* as a setup.
Ray noted that WWE tested fan investment in Knight during a recent *RAW* episode, hinting that creative may use Rollins' reign to get Knight over. 'If Seth is going to win and defeat Roman, and Roman is going to leave, and now it’s going to be LA Knight and Seth, I would not be shocked to see them use Seth Rollins as your champion to get LA Knight over,' he said.
Why is this feud significant for LA Knight?
Knight's promo last week on *RAW*, where he questioned Rollins' title shot, set the stage for this rivalry. Rollins responded by promising Knight a championship opportunity if he beats Reigns. Ray emphasized that Knight has the best chance of succeeding if he chases Rollins for the title.
'Both of them face-to-face, I think LA Knight has the best chance of succeeding, chasing Seth Rollins,' Ray added. This potential feud could finally give Knight the main event push he deserves.
What’s next for LA Knight at SummerSlam?
In a chaotic *RAW* segment, Jimmy Uso faced Royce Keys, leading to an attack by Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa. Knight rushed to the ring, clearing house and challenging The Bloodline to a six-man tag team match at SummerSlam. The match will see Knight, Keys, and Sikoa take on The Bloodline.
This high-stakes match could further elevate Knight’s status, especially if he emerges victorious. With Rollins potentially holding the World Heavyweight Championship, Knight’s path to the main event is clearer than ever.
