LA Knight picked up a huge win at WrestleMana 40.
The former TNA World Champion had his first WrestleMania match in Philadelphia. He beat AJ Styles to end a blood feud between the two, that saw Knight invade the former WWE Champion’s house.
After his win, LA Knight spoke to the WWE Youtube channel. He talked about the match, and said how much the win meant to him.
“Let me talk to you. WrestleMania 40, WrestleMania number one for this guy. And here’s how it goes down, man. AJ Styles, look man, I ain’t gonna take anything away from you. A stud, the man, bonafide stud. The man could go out there with the best of them. He’s been a champion. But tonight, how it goes down, how it goes down, you look into these blue eyes, you catch BFT for your troubles. You catch three the hard way and that’s the way it has to go down.”
“And people would ask, well, how sweet is it? How sweet is it that it’s your first WrestleMania? How sweet is it that you get to go out there just a few hours up from where you grew up? All of a sudden, everybody comes in here, what do we got? 60, 70, 80, 100 thousand strong out there? I don’t know, but however many it was, I could feel each and every one of them out there feeling the cavorka of LA Knight. And what that means is a lot of trouble for anybody who’s in that ring.”
“Tonight it just happened to be AJ Styles. And here’s the thing, man. It was a long time coming and at long last it came. So here’s the deal. You talk about WrestleMania, you talk about LA Knight, and you got to ask yourself, whose game is it? And no doubt about it, anybody will tell you. Matter of fact, everybody will tell you, LA Knight, yeah.”
