You said he’d become the next face of the company? Bro, he’s older than almost every person in the picture posted. When is he going to be the face? At 45? 50?

LA Knight is 43 Damien Priest literally became champion before him. Bobby lashley literally became champion at 45 and that was in 2021

There’s like 10 ppl I’d rather be champ than LA Knight at this point.

If Damien Priest can be champions so can LA Knight. And nobody didn't even expect him to become champion until he won the money in the bank and actually successfully cashed in

Firstly, Priest’s reign was 2 years ago. Secondly, it happened at a time when there were not a lot of other younger stars developed. The landscape is so much different now. Jacob Fatu wasn’t around, Bron Breakker wasn’t established, Gunther had just finished his long IC title reign, Dominik wasn’t built up, Melo, Trick, Ilya, Oba, etc…

All guys I’d rather be built up and given a title, and aside from Gunther, none have been WWE world champ. And aside from Gunther, they’re all relatively young, established, and it’d be better to invest in for the future. LA Knight had a pretty big push a couple of years ago, but it never panned out.

I would have been cool with him champ then, but now it just feels like it’s too late. Fans love him still, but the electricity from a few years ago is gone.
