LA Knight has quickly emerged as the talk of the town in the WWE landscape. After making his mark all over the independent circuit and gaining popularity from wrestling fans from his run as Eli Drake in TNA, the charismatic star made his way to NXT in 2021. He replicated similar success in the developmental territory and was called to the main roster in 2022.
LA Knight has been credited as one of the most talented and charismatic WWE superstars on the main roster today. The captivating star has all the tools to transcend into a megastar and has proven time and time again that he has what it takes to be a top-level player in the field.
With all the talent that LA Knight possesses, Let us take a look at some dream matches for him in the WWE:
1. The Megastar LA Knight vs The Cenation Leader
The former 16-time WWE Champion John Cena shocked the entire WWE Universe when he announced his retirement from in-ring action in WWE next year at the WWE Money in the Bank Premium Live Event last week. WWE fans have begun speculating which WWE Superstars will get a chance to go toe-to-toe with the Greatest of all time, and The Megastar is the top candidate on that list.
For the last few years, John Cena has been nothing but extremely selfless for the next generation of WWE Superstars. Cena has put over superstars like Roman Reigns and Austin Theory and has given a rub and passed the torch to Superstars like Becky Lynch. A match with John Cena would provide LA Knight with the rub and push that he needs to escalate to the next level at this point in his WWE career.
2. The Viper combats with the rising star
LA Knight has battled his fair share of top-level WWE opponents, such as Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and AJ Styles. His excellent performances, combined with his fantastic charisma, have established him as a popular attraction. This popularity can be capitalized on further by putting him up against the veteran of this business, The Viper Randy Orton.
Randy Orton is the dream match for every other WWE superstar who has not had the chance to share the ring with The Apex Predator. The leader of the ‘YEAH” movement got to share the ring with him in a Fatal four-way match at Royal Rumble 2024. However, he still has not faced the Viper in a singles match, which remains a dream match for many fans.
3. LA Knight meets a Visionary
Seth Rollins holds the key to the kingdom of RAW as one of the biggest Superstars, proclaiming the flagship show to be ‘Monday Night Rollins.’ The Drip God has achieved immense success in his illustrious career and battled main-event caliber stars like Roman Reigns, John Cena, Cody Rhodes, and Brock Lesnar.
However, Rollins is yet to meet the rising star power of LA Knight inside the squared circle. Seth Rollins made his triumphant return to the WWE a few weeks ago and challenged Damian Priest for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins might not have won the title, but a match with LA Knight in the future would benefit both superstars and create a lot of buzz in the WWE Universe.
4. The top guy of the modern era
Cody Rhodes made history at WrestleMania 40 when he dethroned the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns in the main event to become the new Undisputed WWE Champion. Ever since winning the title, The Prodigal Son has been determined to become a fighting champion and is poised to have an impressive run with the gold.
Speaking of the impressive title run that Cody Rhodes is having, the current Undisputed WWE Champion has put the title against the likes of AJ Styles and Logan Paul, and a match with LA Knight should happen down the line. A match against LA Knight would be an exciting match between two of the most popular stars of this era.
