WWE announcer Kayla Braxton asked Knight how he was dealing with the mental games Roman Reigns plays to get under the skin of his opponents. The Megastar, wearing his signature glasses, said, “I might have. Tables can turn right there. You talk about Masters of Mind games, just getting game. This ain’t my first time around the block here.”
LA Knight declared that he is not afraid of Roman Reigns’ mind games and it is not his first time in that scenario. Knight further said, “You’ve seen LA Knight come from the very bottom all the way to the damn top and I’ve done that by being the master of this game because it is my game. I have an immunity to that, maybe even perhaps some way to turn it around back on them.”
Knight was referring to the mental games that Reigns played against his opponents. He also reminded everyone how he overcame many obstacles to come from the bottom to the main event picture. It was a reference to his past gimmick of Max Dupri and his constant losses as a jobber.
However, even he was not spared by Reigns as The Tribal Chief insulted him on an episode of SmackDown on 27th October, during their contract signing moment.
