LA Knight Says WWE’s Global Touring Leaves “No Time at Home”

LA Knight is one of WWE’s hottest stars right now, and with his rising popularity comes a relentless schedule. Speaking with WittyWhittier, Knight pulled back the curtain on what life has been like with WWE’s revamped touring approach, which now leans heavily on international events. While fewer domestic shows might sound like a break, Knight says it’s anything but.

“It’s crazy, too, because we’ve slowed down the domestic live events here in the U.S.,” Knight explained. “It’s like you’d figure, ‘oh, well, that’s great. We’re going to get a little more time at home.’ No, because it’s been so much more international.”

Knight detailed just how packed the calendar has been. “We did two UK tours… I think it was two UK tours within a matter of like two or three weeks, just back in October, November. One, I think we were somewhere in Europe, Germany, Brussels, a couple other places like a month before that. Been everywhere around the world and back in such a small amount of time.”

From Japan to South Africa and Kuwait, Knight revealed just how global WWE’s reach has become. “It doesn’t stop. There’s not a lot of lulls,” he continued. “It’s crazy because, I mean, I’m not even sure that we’ve been this regularly worldwide… It’s such a regular thing now, multiple times per year to be in very different parts of the world that give us a very different flavor to what we do, which is really cool.”

For Knight, the jet-setting lifestyle offers its perks, but it’s far from easy. “I mean, Japan in July, everywhere. I can keep going,” Knight shared, emphasizing just how demanding the international schedule has become.

While fans across the globe are thrilled to see WWE superstars in person, it’s clear that the grueling pace leaves little time for downtime. Still, Knight seems to embrace the chaos with his trademark energy.
