LA Knight Says He Wouldn’t Mind Dropping The Rock On His Head
LA Knight has a lot ahead of him and his goal is to achieve great things in WWE. That said, he still hasn’t shied away from comparisons to The Rock, but this time, he seems to have embraced it.
LA Knight wants to get The Great One off his head too.
The Rock and LA Night actually have their own distinct backgrounds. Knight previously starred in Dwayne Johnson’s 2013 reality show The Hero.
In his last stint as Million Dollar Champion, he managed to secure $35,000 in prize money under his real name, but his winning streak was short-lived, lasting just two episodes.
It wasn’t the future WWE superstar’s goal when he entered the competition.
One of his most haunting memories from being on the show was falling victim to The Rock’s iconic slogan
“It Doesn’t Matter” – a moment Knight still vividly remembers ten years later.
In an interview with TalkSport, Knight was asked if he would welcome the chance to face The Rock verbally.
Knight responded, “If such an opportunity arises, we’ve got to incorporate some physicality, don’t we?”
“I don’t mind dropping the Rock on his head!”
“I owe him one from about ten years ago when he hit me with ‘It Doesn’t Matter’ ten years ago so I owe him a little something.”
Merchandise sales continue to skyrocket, and LA Knight is on track to earn over $35,000 in WWE.
The combination of the slogan “YEAH” and “LEMME TALK TO YA” has also become a hot topic.
Only time will tell what’s next for LA Nights, but he definitely didn’t need to win the reality show to be a hero.
