LA Knight’s popularity in WWE took off like a rocket. After years of working his way up the pro wrestling ladder, he has a tremendous amount of attention at this point. It appears that WWE is ready to strap a rocket to him as well.
WWE fans all over pack venues to yell “YEAH” and hear his “LEMME TALK TO YA” catchphrase. Odds are, they will continue doing just that, and WWE will give them plenty of chances to do so.
The Wrestling Observer Newslettter noted that LA Knight is set to get a “megapush” in WWE. The company realizes what kind of strong reaction he gets from fans, and they are not going to let that go.
“LA Knight is expected to get a mega push going forward given that the ratings for his segments and his merchandise sales have both been very strong. The crowd reaction alone would help you but in many cases if WWE thinks it’s a fad and there isn’t economic indications they only take crowd reactions to a certain level. But with Knight, the success is across the board. PW Insider also reported the company is renegotiating his deal for as long as another five years.”
LA Knight is still searching for that first big win in WWE. Only time will tell how long it takes for that to happen, but WWE is apparently going to give LA Knight’s fans a lot more of him in the future.
LA Knight and WWE are also talking about a new long-term contract. It will be interesting to see how much more of a focus they give LA Knight after he inks a new deal.
