There’s no denying that LA Knight has become one of the stars to watch in WWE as he’s quickly ascended to the top of the card in recent months. Knight previously challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Crown Jewel back in November, and he will challenge Reigns once again in a fatal four way match at the Royal Rumble.
LA Knight seems to be very focused on winning championship gold at the moment and he recently explained to Chris Van Vliet why he feels he needs to win a title.
“It seems past due in some regards. Some others would say, ‘he doesn’t need it.’ For me, I think I do need it. I think the reason I need it is because it’s the recognition that the company is saying, not even the company is saying, it’s that I have gotten to a level where I have proven that I am beyond worthy. I have proven that I deserve it, and I’ve proven that I’m ready.”
While Knight is currently involved in the Undisputed WWE Universal Title picture he made it clear that he would be happy to hold any of the titles that are currently part of the men’s division in WWE.
“Any of them, in all honesty, but I’m looking at the top spot. Anybody would love to be a Tag Team Champion, US Champion, Intercontinental Champion, World Champion. I want to be The Guy. Whether that means I need to win an Intercontinental Championship or US Championship on the way, I’m about that. I look at the guys who have come before me and they’ve used the Intercontinental Championship or US Title as their way to the top. I’ve been able to springboard straight to the top, fallen just barely short. When it comes down to it, let me use that leverage of an Intercontinental or US Title.”
