LA Knight has become one of the most talked about wrestlers on the WWE roster over the last few years, and he’s solidified himself as a top star on the SmackDown brand. There’s no denying that Knight is hard to ignore, and his loud personality has led to some people comparing him to former WWE star Ken Anderson (Mr. Kennedy).
Recently Ken Anderson addressed the comparisons on Rewind Recap Relive, and he praised the current WWE United States Champion while stating that he doesn’t think LA Knight is copying anybody.
“I get it. I appreciate it, like, I don’t think that anybody is copying anybody. That’s his genuine persona. Yeah, he may have taken inspiration from different people, as we all do. There really is nothing in wrestling that’s new. It’s all sort of borrowed and tweaked, right? But I think he’s great. I actually got a chance to work with him at NWA for a little while. I wish him nothing but the best.”
LA Knight will be competing at WrestleMania for the second time in his career this year when he defends the United States Championship against Jacob Fatu at WrestleMania 41. Stay tuned for updates.
