2 million dollar megastars catching up. Love to see it. LA Knight, *let CVV talk to ya!* It's been great to see Knight, finally doing so well for himself on the main roster, after he did so well in NXT. Getting to do something with Undertaker was cool. It's just crazy to me that Vince originally saw the LA Knight character, with all the mic skills and charisma, and decided he needed to change that, and Knight still killed it as Max DuPRIIII! Glad HHH changed him back, though, and hope he continues to do good things on the main roster. You see this chat? Chat of a champion! *YEAH!*

[@TonyMontana-lm5gp]

I was trying to figure out why I like this guy so much And it hit me That he is basically the personification of each era A little bit of The rock, Stone cold, Eighties over the top physique, 90s, 2000s mic work, the current mesh of jumping in-and-out of character. Yup He's the full package

[@danlc95]

He's so very well balanced on talking performing, in ring work, and overloaded with charisma. He could face giants, specialists, "gimmicky" guys (Bray), anyone - a lot like The Rock did, and still be believable.

[@oneopinion8767]

Agreed! YEAH!

[@oneopinion8767]

@@danlc95 also agreed, I’m kinda psyched to honestly be reading all these reactions because seriously, this gimmick is pure fire!

[@danlc95]

@One Opinion - Right? I'm sure they (wwe) has staff scanning these threads. I'm watching as I type, Smack Down. The first time since 2001 - specifically to see if LA Knight makes an appearance.

[@mclew1234]

Amazing how he can jump in & out of character seamlessly, he has mastered the new age of what a pro-wrestler is, allow people to see enough of him to be invested in him as a person rather than a character, but have an ability to seamlessly slip into character when needed. The fact that even with the Undertaker in the ring he still had the crowd shouting his catchphrase back to him show how over he is

[@danlc95]

Natural charisma. The dude is the total package.

[@mccannmotorsports3858]

The man is still in character even a little bit in the interview when Wyatt is brought up, even back when he was Eli Drake, he was a superstar talent, I can't wait to see how far he goes, he's gonna be on top of the world

LA Knight has more potential than anyone in WWE, a real wrestler in a world of children, too bad he only got horrible stuff to work with on the main roster so far.
