Kevin Nash said LA Knight deserves to be on the WrestleMania 42 card and questioned how WWE plans to use him given his involvement in the current storylines heading into the show.
Speaking on the Kliq This podcast, Nash pointed out that Knight has been heavily involved in the build to WrestleMania but does not currently have a match announced for the event.
“The odd man out in this is LA Knight,” Nash said. “LA Knight’s been involved in this whole storyline, and he doesn’t have a match. I think that LA Knight definitely deserves to be on the WrestleMania card. Get that downside payday.”
Nash said Knight has put in too much work in the current storylines to not have a spot on the card. He floated the idea of a potential match with Logan Paul if Bron Breakker returns in time.
“If Breakker’s back, you go Logan Paul again with LA Knight,” Nash said. “They had that SummerSlam. You could put a step in it and make it a little different.”
Nash also discussed the possibility of Breakker being cleared for WrestleMania, noting that three weeks is enough time for him to return. He suggested that Seth Rollins is a higher priority for the WrestleMania card than the tag team storyline.
“I think Seth’s of higher priority to make sure he’s on the Mania card than the tag match,” Nash said. “The tag match, you could put somebody in there.”
Knight was involved in Monday’s Raw at Madison Square Garden as a guest commentator for the World Tag Team Championship street fight between The Usos and Logan Paul and Austin Theory. Knight attacked Logan Paul at ringside during the match and he was accidentally knocked out by IShowSpeed so it looks like a match for Knight will be added to the card soon.
WrestleMania 42 takes place Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
