LA Knight has Hulk Hogan‘s stamp of approval.
LA Knight has quickly become one of WWE’s top stars in recent months, as fans have rallied around him. He headlined WWE Crown Jewel, where he lost to Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Despite this setback, Knight remains a fan-favorite, and he consistently draws some of the loudest pops of the night. WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan hs apparently noticed Knight’s success.
In an interview with MrSantiZap, Hulk Hogan shared his thoughts on LA Knight. (Ht/ Jeremy Lambert of Fightful for the transcription)
“The new guy on the scene, LA Knight, I’d love to get in there with him,” Hogan said. “He’s getting way too big, way too fast, he’s a rising superstar and I love the guy to death. I love watching him on TV. LA Knight, there is a lot of old school in him. He goes in there, he grinds, and he stays on it. His cadence is what attracted me. ‘Let me tell you something, brother.’ ‘Let me talk to ya.’ Same thing.
“It’s the same cadence, same vibe, and he’s got it down. He learned quick, he’s a quick study, and the application, the way he nails things, his placement in the ring, his timing is impeccable. Heck of an athlete, good looking kid. Built like a Greek God, it’s all coming his way, and he’s very consistent. I haven’t met him, but he seems like a really good person.”
