Over the last few months the wrestling world has been talking a lot about LA Knight and it’s become clear that he’s one of the most popular wrestlers on the WWE roster. However, WWE hasn’t been pushing Knight in recent months and some fans were baffled after he lost the fatal four way match on the most recent episode of SmackDown.
PWTorch.com is reporting that Vince McMahon has grown to be a fan of LA Knight. According to the report LA Knight’s popularity and crowd reactions have put him on Vince McMahon and Triple H’s radar. It’s being said that Knight is a candidate for a big push after SummerSlam.
It was also noted that his in-ring work isn’t at the level of most WWE main eventers, but despite that he’s on course to get pushed at a high level because the feeling is he has the X-factor and people can’t help but notice the crowd reactions he’s been getting.
LA Knight reportedly has a long running reputation for rubbing people the wrong way behind the scenes and for being bad at backstage politics. However, those who know him well tend to like him, and some have even spoken up on his behalf when he gives a bad first impression. If LA Knight gets pushed and that push is not sustained then it will be because he mishandled himself backstage and lost the support of key people.
