LA Knight is undoubtedly one of the biggest stars in WWE right now as his booking has more or less confirmed how the company views him right now. He is set for a huge match at WWE Fastlane but it appears Knight believes he has no business being in such a position.
The former NXT Superstar has organically gotten over with fans due to his ability to connect with the audience and make them feel something, which has a lot to do with his exceptional promo skills.
LA Knight is set to team up with the Leader of Cenation and face off against Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa at WWE Fastlane. While speaking to SHAK Wrestling, LA Knight talked about his upcoming match at Fastlane, stating that he believes he has no business being in such a match, as he reflected on his position in the past year.
”In a weird way, I’ve got no business being here. I mean, if we look just a year ago, where I was and what I was doing, what a hell of a turnaround. Damn near unheard of. So yeah, it’s kind of a crazy situation. I’m not the best at letting myself really feel that. Maybe 10 years down the road when I look back, but right now in this situation, I’m just so, I don’t know if you’d say maniacally focused or whatever it is, on just making sure that everything hits the mark and that everything is just the way that I want it to be. But yeah, it’s tough for me to step back and just be like, ‘Wow, this is great.’ Occasionally I might have that thought, but it’s very fleeting.’
That’s the craziest part about this is in a weird way, it’s like an overnight success, but it was also 20 years in the making to get to an overnight success, which is such a juxtaposition in a strange way. I still have a habit of just looking over my shoulder and just waiting for somebody to pull the rug out from under me at any point in time. I’m either waiting for the rug pull or I’m waiting to kind of like, jump up and defend the rug pool because it’s just I’m used to, ‘No, no, no’, and be having to push and yeah, it’s me having to create my own opportunities and even when I’m now kind of put into bigger opportunities, it’s still not a point where I can relax and just be like, ‘Okay, everything’s good.'”
WWE is also expected to give him a big push after Fastlane. It remains to be seen whether this big push will result in LA Knight becoming a Champion for the first time in WWE, as fans would love to see him end the year as a champion.
