As we inch closer to the Money in the Bank ladder match at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday, July 2, the WWE spotlight is aimed squarely at two names: LA Knight and Logan Paul. But, while the latter doesn’t appear to have a fan in Triple H, at least far as winning the titular match of the event goes, the former is getting a ton of praise from WWE fans and veterans alike. As a matter of fact, the WWE Hall of Famer, Booker T, had high praise for Knight, going as far as to say that the WWE should use this as an opportunity to crown the 40-year-old wrestler.
Knight has quickly become a fan favorite in the WWE. His unique charisma and in-ring talent have caught the attention of the WWE Universe, and he’s now positioned at the cusp of a significant breakthrough.
Despite the worries and the heavyweight competition – including Logan Paul, Damian Priest, and Shinsuke Nakamura – LA Knight has a fan in Booker T, among others, who believe that the WWE should put him “in the game”.
“When you’ve got a guy like him, he’s rare, very rare. He’s organic, he’s figured it out on his own. When you’ve got guys like that you’ve just got to put them in the game,” said Booker, all the while praising his organic growth and grit.
The wrestling veteran also noted how Knight took what little he was given and turned it into something remarkable. This resilience underscores Knight’s talent and hints at his potential for a successful title run.
As Money in the Bank draws near, all eyes are on LA Knight. Will he overcome the stacked odds, rise to the occasion, and capture the coveted briefcase? His journey is not just about a title but completing a childhood dream and answering the call of fans and legends alike.
With Knight’s talent and the groundswell of support behind him, the time seems ripe for WWE to push him to the next level, and the Money in the Bank ladder match could be the launching pad. The WWE Universe and wrestling enthusiasts worldwide are all waiting to see if this Saturday will be the day LA Knight ascends to the next level of stardom.
If nothing else, we’d love to see LA Knight use the Money in the Bank (provided he wins) to try and snatch the title belt from Seth Rollins.
