Soon after recovering from Covid-19, LA Knight showed up at Friday Night SmackDown. Following WWE’s plan, the wrestler lent a helping hand to John Cena, who was in dire need of being saved from The Bloodline. As a result, the Cenation Leader received an unexpected partner for his tag team match against the two Samoan wrestlers.

With their tag team match just around the corner, scheduled a day after this week’s SmackDown. During his last appearance, he seemed as confident as ever. So, could WWE be looking forward to booking him for future events already? Let’s see what Knight’s future has in store for him and the fans.

The most predictable move by WWE after Fastlane would be to make Knight stand toe-to-toe against his current ally. Since ‘Crown Jewel’ is a month away, we can see the two stars wrestling against each other after being friends for a brief period. In fact, both wrestlers have already confirmed their presence at the PLE taking place in Saudi Arabia.

At the same event, however, Knight could also feud with Roman Reigns for his Universal Championship, given how he is increasingly becoming a top WWE star himself.

Rey Mysterio is the current United States Champion. So, WWE may develop a feud between Knight and the luchador to make the 40-year-old, the new US Champion of WWE. This could also lead to a good run for the wrestler, facing top WWE stars on a regular basis.

Moreover, if Knight’s luck is in the air till 2024, the Stamford-based company may also make him the winner of the upcoming Royal Rumble.

LA Knight’s future in this promotion probably holds something good for him. This is because he rose to become a fan favorite quickly. In fact, he ended up gaining so much support that a WWE legend had to publicly apologize to him for his harsh words.

Kevin Nash has garnered a reputation for voicing out his strong opinions on current affairs in the wrestling world. During a podcast episode a few months ago, LA Knight’s topic came up. However, the WWE legend didn’t treat it with much respect. He even called him out for being a copy of other legendary wrestlers before him. But this opinion of him changed when the viewers told Nash about Knight’s growing stardom.
