LA Knight is determined to emerge victorious at WWE Elimination Chamber and, from there, WrestleMania 40.
LA Knight qualified for the Men’s Elimination Chamber match by beating Ivar on WWE RAW. If he wins the Elimination Chamber, he will challenge World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 40.
Speaking on RAW Talk, LA Knight made it clear that he didn’t feel like he had anything to show for his rise to the top so far, and he intended to change that.
“Save the congratulations. Let me talk to you. There have been a little bit too many congratulations coming way the last few months. Let’s just be honest. Everybody’s been talking about, ‘You know what, LA Knight, he’s come out of nothing, and all of a sudden, he’s this big star. Some would say a megastar.’ They’d be right. Yeah. Here’s the thing. What do I really have to hang my hat on yet at this point? What do I have to just sink my teeth into yet? I say that’s a big fat goose egg.
“Did I win the Slim Jim Battle Royal? Yeah. Have I become pretty much the biggest star running today? Maybe some would argue there’s a couple others up there with me, rubbing elbows. But let’s call it what it is. You’re talking about a man who came from, we’ll say feeble expectations, and making it all the way to the top of the damn industry. People want to give me congratulations for that. Nah nah. Save the congratulations.
LA Knight Sends A Message To Seth Rollins
LA Knight then stated that everyone should save their congratulations for when he wins the Elimination Chamber, and they could say it again when he dethroned Rollins. Knight declared that Seth “Freakin” Rollins would be calling himself former champion after they crossed paths.
“Give me the congratulations when I walk out of Elimination Chamber the number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship, and then congratulate me two times when I go to WrestleMania and I take it off of Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins,” LA Knight said. “Nice middle name you got there, pal. But what you’re gonna call yourself after that is former champion because right now, you’re looking at the future champion.
“You got five other guys walking into Perth, walking into Elimination Chamber, all gonna dropped, dropped, dropped. Each one of them’s gonna get dropped on their head, BFT-style because that’s the only way it can go down. That’s not an insult. That is just a fact of life. Why is that? Because whose game is it? With everybody saying, ‘LA Knight.’ Yeah.”
