WrestleMania 39 was the biggest event of WWE of this year and much like the recent years, WWE booked it for two nights. It featured some amazing matches and some of the matches received five star ratings. This event would also be recognized as the first WrestleMania 39 to have a Tag Team Championship match as the main event.
But the show could not provide booking to a lot of big names of the promotion like Bobby Lashley who was originally scheduled to face Bray Wyatt at the event, but after Wyatt’s departure, WWE failed to book Lashley, however, he went on to win the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal the night before the event.

Another big star that remained unbooked at WrestleMania 39 was ‘The Megastar’ LA Knight who has been pretty impressive in the recent months. The 40 year old is currently being projected as a top star of the promotion. Speaking with BT Sport, ‘The Megastar’ expressed his frustration over not having any booking at the Grandest Stage of them all;
“I kinda let that one just stay where it was because I had let out all my anger and frustration the night before, because I felt very vindicated by the reaction that LA had given me at the SmackDown the night before.
LA Knight Did Not Get Any Booking On WrestleMania 39
“It was big, it was huge, and it kinda made me even more p*ssed off that I didn’t have something going on the next day.
“So, at that point though I had to just be like, ‘Well, it is what it is, bye’, and just kind of left it in the rear-view mirror at that point. So I haven’t really sat and thought about it, reflected on it, whatever.
“Glaring omission you say? Yeah. Maybe even a stumble or a fumble, I don’t know. But here we are and we’re gonna make up for it.” Concluded the former Million Dollar Champion LA Knight.
There are rumours that he might get to win the men’s Money in the Bank ladder match this year and the event is scheduled for this Saturday. He is even the favourite to win the match on BetOnline. We hope LA Knight turns out to be a main eventer in the near future.
