LA Knight has been making his presence known in the NXT Universe for the past couple of weeks, but tonight, he did a bit more than simply come out and brag about himself.

Knight made his way to the ring tonight to once again talk himself up, saying that he doesn’t plan on just becoming the G.O.A.T. of NXT, but something better. After leaving the ring as Bronson Reed and Cameron Grimes came down for their match, though, he would end up returning. Late in the match between Reed and Grimes, Knight came back down to the ring to seemingly help Grimes, tossing his hat back into the ring after Reed had knocked it out after dropping Grimes with a nasty slam.

As Reed began to climb to the top rope, though, Knight got up on the apron, and although Reed grabbed at Knight to try and get him away, Knight was able to push Reed off of the top rope. After falling down from the top rope, Grimes quickly hit the Cave In for the win.
