Booker T is hoping to see LA Knight finally reach the top of WWE, even if he’s unsure what’s been holding him back.
Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, the two-time Hall of Famer addressed a fan question about Knight’s standing, admitting he’s puzzled by the star’s inability to break through to the title picture. “It’s hard for me to put a finger on what’s going on with LA Knight,” Booker said. “He’s been a guy that they would have put a trigger on.”
Booker, who has long stressed the importance of striking while the iron is hot, suggested that time may be a factor for the veteran. “We’re just talking about expiration dates. Expiration date’s gonna run out on him,” he said.
Still, Booker offered an optimistic spin, floating the idea that WWE may be building toward a big payoff. “Maybe it’s gonna be one of those shocking moments, you know, that people go, ‘Man, finally,’ when he does cash in,” Booker said. “I’m hoping for LA Knight to get his shine, get his big push.”
