LA Knight and Cameron Grimes were engaged in a feud for a while, which featured WWE Hall Of Famer Ted Dibiase returning to WWE television and bringing back his Million Dollar Championship.
At the NXT Takeover: In Your House event, LA Knight squared off against Cameron Grimes in a ladder match to determine the new Million Dollar Champion. In the end, LA Knight was victorious and joined a prestigious club of champions.
While speaking to WWE India, Wade Barrett talked about the current NXT roster and especially brought up LA Knight, who is one of the mainstays of the brand right now. Barrett added that he believes LA Knight will main event WrestleMania one day.
“So somebody I’m really excited by at the moment is a relative newcomer to NXT and it’s LA Knight. I thought his performance in the ladder match at NXT TakeOver: In Your House was incredible. Obviously, I have a certain amount of childhood memories related to The Million Dollar Man and The Million Dollar Championship.
So to see such a great, historic, prestigious championship back in the world of NXT is fantastic and for it to be around the waist of LA Knight, to me, is just superb. He is the ideal person to continue the legacy of The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase and he might even go one further. Ted DiBiase never main evented a WrestleMania, I think LA Knight can certainly do that.”
The coronation for LA Knight as the Million Dollar Champion took place on this week’s episode of NXT. However, LA Knight would turn on Ted Dibiase and attacked him in the ring. We will have to see how LA Knight will be booked from now on and whether he will go on to main event WrestleMania one day.
