Over the last few years there have been a number of breakout stars in WWE and there’s no denying that LA Knight has been one of the names to watch. LA Knight has become one of the most popular stars on the roster and he’s also managed to become a two time WWE United States Champion.
Back in November of 2023, LA Knight challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship at Crown Jewel, but it was the Tribal Chief who walked out with the gold. Even though Knight has yet to win the big one, he recently told Gorilla Position that he believes a world title run is in his future.
“I don’t see how it’s not (Knight responded when asked if he thinks a WWE World Title is in his future)… I don’t care if they do (he said when asked if he thinks the powers that be see that for him). I’m sure that they didn’t believe that I would have gotten to where I got and that’s not a knock at them… People see what they see and the company’s gonna have an agenda. You’re not always gonna be a part of it and for me, it was just, okay, well, I can’t worry about that.”
“I gotta do what I gotta do in the sense of just keep pushing. If I have 30 seconds, it’s gonna be the best damn 30 seconds I can give ‘em. If it’s 60 seconds, 90 seconds, whatever it is so those little bits of time that they were giving me when it was me and Bray Wyatt or just me floating off by myself doing nothing for months and months and months and months after Bray Wyatt. It was just, okay, well, I’m gonna make the damn best out of every single little bit that I got on here and at that point, it was forcing the hand and I know we’re going into the same thing and I talk about it I feel like in every damn interview and I hate that.”
“When you ask about does the company see this, I don’t know and I don’t care. Would it be nice if they did? Would it make things a lot easier if they did? Yeah. Yeah, it’d make things a lot easier. But I can’t worry about that so, I don’t think I’ve ever been anybody’s guy. I don’t feel like I’m anybody’s guy. If I am somebody’s guy, it’s a surprise to me. I can’t worry about that, I can’t think about that. I just gotta keep doing me and so yeah, I think there’s a world title run in my future and whether they think it or anybody else thinks it, doesn’t make a difference to me. At some point, it’s probably gonna happen.”
“Would I like to be the world champion? Yeah, bet your a**. But at the same time, that time will come. Probably way overdue (he smiled). Probably should already be there, should have already been there but I can’t worry about that. Who cares? I feel like I’m kicking a**.”
