Earlier this year, LA Knight was called up to the WWE main roster following a memorable run in NXT.
In an interview with the USA Network, Knight reflected on his NXT run and discussed his Million Dollar Title feud with Cameron Grimes. He said,
“NXT was a fun and wild ride. Obviously this was my second time around. The first time, I butted heads with the former head coach, but now coming back this time around, it was just a better understanding of each other and who I was and who I was working with I guess to some degree. This time things were just streamlined and it made the process in NXT really good and flourish creatively if you will!”
“I mean bringing back Ted Dibiase’s Million Dollar Championship … I mean that’s crazy! It’s a championship that only what, maybe five or six guys in total have ever held and now you’re being told that it’s going to be introduced and up for grabs — that was pretty wild. Then you go into the fall and the winter and all of a sudden the crowd is starting to jump on my side. It was just a good, amazing ride. It was quick, it was only a year, but man, NXT is something I’m going to remember for a long time.”
Knight spent only one year in NXT before debuting on RAW.
