There are several stars who are on the rise in WWE right now and LA Knight has quickly become one of the most popular wrestlers on the roster. It seems that LA Knight has quite a few fans and his mic skills seem to be what fans are focused on as opposed to his in-ring skills.
During a recent interview with Daily Star, LA Knight noted that there are a lot of guys, “just doing their routines, doing the tumbling, and they’re doing their gymnastics and that kind of stuff – I don’t do that.”
The WWE star went on to point out that the most recognizable names in the professional wrestling business became popular due to their charisma, not because of the moves they were doing in the ring.
“If you look at the biggest swells in the industry, you’re looking at the golden era with Hogan – big time charisma – you’re looking at the at the Attitude Era with with The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. It was all big time charisma, nobody was doing crazy flips.”
“I mean, some of the guys were doing that, but those are the guys on the undercard card, and no disrespect to that as that’s something that you need on the card, but for the guys that I wanted to be and the guys that I wanted to emulate and where I wanted to be on the card – I knew who I wanted to be.”
