On the latest episode of his Kliq This podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash offered high praise for LA Knight. After previously being critical of Knight, referring to him as a “copycat” of The Rock and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, Nash has changed his tune and now sees him as a main event talent.
Nash not only complimented Knight’s work and connection with the fans but also endorsed him for a run with a world championship.
“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.”
