LA Knight Believes Vince McMahon Was Getting Ready To Fire Him Before Triple H Took Over

LA Knight believes he was on the verge of being fired by WWE before Triple H took over.

Knight has been one of the most over stars in WWE this year so far and is the fan favorite to win the Money In The Bank ladder match this year.

However, prior to Triple H taking over creative, Knight believes he had already been fired by Vince McMahon. Knight noted this and more while speaking  on Chris Van Vliet’s Insight podcast.

“Well, let me just go ahead and say this, I’m pretty sure I was fired. And it just hadn’t officially happened yet. Without getting into too many details, some things happened. I don’t remember what it was, but some things happened. And then I had gotten a FaceTime. ‘Hey, you know, we want to keep you around. We want to do this, this, that whatever.’ And, okay, cool. Good.”

“So somehow I had been saved from being thrown off the cliff. At least this is my interpretation of it. Maybe I’m incorrect, I don’t know. And so eventually, just things kind of worked out.”
