Despite Stacked Odds Against Him, LA Knight Gets Himself a Supporter in WWE Legend Hoping to See Him Win at Crown Jewel 2023

Ever since Roman Reigns returned on the SmackDown Premiere, his feud with LA Knight is the talk of the town. The two superstars exchanged a heated argument at the Premiere. While some expected Reigns to feud with a WWE legend this time around, the promotion quickly announced that Knight is indeed going to face Reigns at Crown Jewel 2023.

This fired up the enthusiasm among many fans who were waiting for a big push for the 40-year-old. Even though his fate is dicey for now, a WWE legend has faith in him. According to Booker T, WWE could be planning to make him snatch the Universal Championship away from Reigns.

Could LA Knight defeat his odds against the champion?

The Tribal Chief has been defending his title as the Undisputed Universal Champion for over 1100 days. It is quite clear by now that nobody stands in front of the superstar to take away what is rightfully his. Knight is going to be Reigns’ fifth challenger this year. Since there are other future predictions as to how the Samoan wrestler would lose his title, Knight is battling against heavy odds. But Booker T thinks differently.

Appearing on his Hall of Fame Podcast, the former WWE wrestler gave his thoughts on a situation where LA Knight hypothetically wins a championship.

“One thing about this business is always talking about also the sand in the hourglass, the clock is ticking, and you want to capitalize right now. You don’t want to wait till tomorrow to capitalize on something like late night because that fire is going to burn out,” said the legend. According to him, it would be beneficial for the Stamford-based company to let Knight win because of how ‘hot’ he currently is with fans.

Through his words, we can see that the Hall of Famer is well-versed in how the wrestling promotion functions. He believes that WWE urges capitalizing on a good opportunity. So, this habit of the company’s management may work in LA Knight’s favor.
