On his path to fame, LA Knight worked hard.
40-year-old Knight has been wrestling for more than 20 years. He put in a lot of effort throughout the years while wrestling for a variety of promotions, including Hollywood’s NWA Championship Wrestling. Knight temporarily worked for WWE while he was in the development system, but in 2014, he was let go. He persisted despite having a good career in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling; but, in order to make ends meet, he also ventured outside of the sport. Fans have recently discovered several examples of Knight’s work, including his motion capture work for WWE 2K games.
In the most recent instance, a social media user shared a footage from an ALDI commercial that featured the future LA Knight. In the video, Knight goes food shopping and talks about his enthusiasm for their niche brands.
Knight’s perseverance has paid off because he is now one of WWE’s hottest performers and his supporters aren’t stopping. In the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, he was one of the favorites to win, but Damian Priest did so instead.
In response to Kevin Nash’s criticism of LA Knight, Jeff Jarrett lauded the latter’s ardor.
LA Knight recently committed to succeed whether or not the Money in the Bank case is present.
