Since the start of this year, fans have been behind LA Knight and have wanted to see him get the push they think he deserves based on his performance on WWE television, whether that be on the microphone or in the ring.
Following his loss to Bray Wyatt at the Royal Rumble in January and being left off the WrestleMania 39 card, Knight has risen up the ranks in the company.
Knight’s new push started after the August 5th SummerSlam PLE despite being said to be bad at backstage politics and has a reputation for rubbing some people the wrong way.
Knight had been paired with John Cena on WWE television as of late and is days away from headlining this Saturday’s WWE Crown Jewel PLE when he challenges Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title.
As seen below, Brandon Thurston of WrestleNomics put together a list of the top WWE merchandise sellers in WWE for the month of October. LA Knight topped the list followed by John Cena and Cody Rhodes.
