Money in the Bank is the upcoming PLE of WWE and the two MITB ladder matches are the biggest attractions of this event. ‘The Megastar’ LA Knight remained the biggest favourite to win the men’s MITB match and there are massive rumours that WWE wants to push him as a top star.
The former Million Dollar Champion had been presented as one of the top stars ever since joining the main roster and recently he received pretty strong booking. Knight recently explained how much pressure he has while working in the main roster of WWE. Speaking with The Daily Star, he said;
LA Knight’s Wrestle For Triumph: How He’s Dealing With The Pressure Of WWE MITB
On his in-ring style: “There’s a lot of guys out there just doing their routines, doing the tumbling, and they’re doing their gymnastics and that kind of stuff – I don’t do that. Sure, I can throw some spice in there every now and then, where it makes sense, where it fits where I need it. A lot of times it’s the physical charisma, it’s the physical kind of mannerisms and stuff like that, like how are you conducting yourself? How are you holding yourself?
“If you look at the biggest swells in the industry, you’re looking at the golden era with Hogan – big time charisma – you’re looking at the at the Attitude Era with with The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. It was all big time charisma, nobody was doing crazy flips.” Said the former Million Dollar Champion.
LA Knight Is The Favorite For Money In The Bank
“I mean, some of the guys were doing that, but those are the guys on the undercard card, and no disrespect to that as that’s something that you need on the card, but for the guys that I wanted to be and the guys that I wanted to emulate and where I wanted to be on the card – I knew who I wanted to be.”
On putting pressure on himself: “The only pressure I’ve got right now is just on myself. I can hear all the noise out there and hear what everybody’s saying and all that, but at the end of the day, there’s one guy who can make that happen, and it’s me. So all the pressure, any pressure that anybody can put on me out there cannot compare to the pressure that I’m going to put on myself.”
Knight might have been the favourite to win Money in the Bank ladder match but after Vince McMahon slowly taking over the creative, everything is a matter of subject to change. So we are not weighing on anyone at this moment. But we can expect Knight to become a top star of WWE in the near future.
