Kevin Nash, once a doubter, now supports LA Knight for a WWE World Heavyweight Champion run.
LA Knight was rebranded as Max Dupri in May 2022 and reverted back to his LA Knight persona in October 2022. Over the past three years, Knight has risen to on the roster. He was already became a two-time U.S. Champion and main event premium live event.
However, during LA Knight’s rise, Kevin Nash became a vocal critic. Knight revealed that it felt like Nash tried to “take food off his table.” The two eventually settled their differences at WWE SummerSlam 2024.
With LA Knight’s popularity growing year by year among fans, his biggest critic is now ready to see him become WWE World Heavyweight Champion. On the latest episode of his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash had high praise for Knight.
“I’ll tell you what. We gave him a lot of shit early in this show, that he was a copycat and everything else, and I really appreciate him. He’s a fucking solid hand. The people like him. He would definitely be on my list of guys to give a run to, to give a world run to. The only problem is, he’s a babyface… his work’s always been solid… I was just gonna say also, that fucker stays in fucking really good shape.” [H/T: Wrestlingnews]
