WWE has a lot of options on the table, and LA Knight has to be someone that they want to book. He has fans behind him, as they yell “YEAH” back at him, every time he cuts a promo. Now, we have a much better idea about what almost happened for him at the biggest party of the summer.
LA Knight might get a big match at SummerSlam. He could win the fatal four-way match on SmackDown and get his way into a United States Title match. That being said, there were other options for him.
During a conversation on his Impaulsive podcast, Logan Paul opened up about WWE’s possible plans for him at SummerSlam. It turns out that LA Knight was one of them.
“There are two guys that I would potentially have a match with at SummerSlam. I don’t really know how this works, do I pitch to the company, do they pitch me.
“The two guys are Ricochet and LA Knight, for various reasons. So Ricochet is obviously, I think he’s probably one of the most athletic guys in WWE [Seth Rollins added a remark claiming he’s one of the most athletic of all time].
“I would consider myself also extremely athletic in the WWE, and a part of me wants to, I wanna show him who the better athlete is, I wanna out-athlete the athlete in the WWE.
“I think we could have one of the most physically spectacular phenomenon shows of all time. [Rollins and Logan’s co-host Mike joked about them getting a five-star Dave Meltzer match].
“I would love to absolutely melt the house down with Ricochet.”
Ricochet and Logan Paul could tear the house down. That might be a standout match on the SummerSlam card, but only time will tell how long they get on the card.
Even if Logan Paul and Ricochet get a few minutes at the biggest party of the summer, the two of them will still be in a marque matchup. Meanwhile, LA Knight will likely still have a place somewhere on the card.
