NXT’s Mr. Stone may be a good friend to LA Knight but doesn’t expect the ‘megastar’ to leave Crown Jewel as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
This Saturday, Knight will challenge Roman Reigns in Riyadh on what will be day 1,161 of the Tribal Chief’s historic title reign.
Speaking to “Wrestle Binge” Stone spoke about Knight, and while the pair are close, he is still predicting that Reigns will emerge on top. He said,
“I’ve known LA Knight for very long. Been in the ring with him, been outside the ring with him, partied with him, but we won’t get into that right now. He’s a wild guy, and everyone close to him always knew how talented he was. Always knew how great he’s been; it was only a matter of time before he blew up like he is. What a big opportunity in the main event at Crown Jewel against Roman Reigns. It’s a very big thing when you have that momentum. He’s got the fans behind that work wonders.
“God, but Roman Reigns is so good. If I was a betting man, as much as I hate to say this because he’s my friend, I’m picking Reigns. He’s too good, and I think he’s at the point of being untouchable. I just don’t think Roman Reigns is ready to lose yet.”
Crown Jewel will take place on November 4. Other matches announced include Shinsuke Nakamura Vs. Seth Rollins, John Cena Vs. Solo Sikoa & Logan Paul Vs. Rey Mysterio.
