Kevin Nash Apologizes To LA Knight After Shading Him

LA Knight has a lot of fans pulling for him right now, but that doesn’t mean Kevin Nash is on board. The two-time WWE Hall of Famer has made no secret about the fact that he thinks LA Knight is ripping off The Rock bit, and he’s not backing down.

Kevin Nash doubled down on his comments before. He questioned why LA Knight didn’t get over in any company he went to before WWE. He also refused to apologize for saying this about LA Knight.

Kevin Nash previously said that he hasn’t spoken to Triple H about WWE creative, let alone LA Knight. That being said, he didn’t know who Knight even was.

During his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash opened up a bit. It seems that he apologized for what he said, because he didn’t even realize who LA Knight was at the time.

“Well, one thing I’ve got to say is, four or five years ago, man, I thought wrestling was gonna die. I was just like, God, every show is bad. Then RAW started getting better. I’ve just never been a SmackDown guy. We didn’t have Smackdown and when I went back, I was rarely on it. I was always a RAW guy, so I just watch RAW. That’s the show I watch. That’s the show I watch every week. I watch NXT probably the second most of anything, and now that they’re doing where they’re sending RAW guys down to NXT, now it’s got my interest because I’m trying to see who they’re giving a rub to and that they’re probably going to bring up to the main roster.”

“Kevin Dunn has always been so far above everybody else from a production standpoint. There were a lot of people that were saying, and we talked about it, does Vince have his hands in creative and things like that, and it’s like, I watched the show. I just said, ‘Am I the only one that sees like a better continuity going from match to interview’, like, it just seemed like things are clicking.”

“If LA Knight, if the people, if he’s the chosen one, if he’s the people’s champion, then he’s the people’s champion, it doesn’t f*cking matter to me. If his segments do a number and that f*cking helps the WWE, which I’m a stockholder, and it makes my buddy, f*cking Paul’s life easier, than f*ck, get over dude. It was just one of those things where I don’t watch SmackDown, so dude, I didn’t know who the f*ck you were and I apologized. But some of us that are in professional wrestling actually watch sports, watch film, occasionally read a book. I do other things besides watch wrestling. There’s 394 hours of wrestling on television a week. I just can’t do it.”

We will have to see what’s next for LA Knight. He has a ton of momentum behind him. Only time will tell if he gets to pick up a championship or two along the way as well.

Kevin Nash will continue speaking his mind about whatever he wants. At this point, he has earned that right. That doesn’t mean that he knows everything about everyone on WWE television. Even Big Kev is able to learn a bit along the way.

LA Knight has a ton of attention, but are you behind him? Sound off in the comments to let us know what you’re thinking!
