“Man, there’s so many different ways you can go. I mean, I look at the fact that WrestleMania’s gonna be John Cena’s last WrestleMania. Could it be me against John Cena for that United States Championship? I don’t know. Will I even be the United States Champion by then? It could be.”
LA Knight also teased other thrilling matchups, expressing interest in a “title vs. title” face-off against WWE heavyweights Cody Rhodes and Gunther. Both wrestlers are known for their intensity and dominance in the ring, making them ideal opponents for Knight.
Title vs. Title: Cody Rhodes or Gunther?
Knight revealed his ambition to challenge WWE’s top stars for championship titles, stating:
“If I was gonna fantasy book, I would probably do a title vs. title, me versus Cody, or maybe even me versus Gunther. I’m looking for the champions. I want the world championship, I want the WWE Championship, and so for me, again, it’s always that progression.”
With Cody Rhodes holding significant momentum and Gunther reigning as a powerhouse in WWE, either matchup would bring a unique dynamic to WrestleMania 41. LA Knight’s confidence and drive to face these champions reflects his dedication to rising through WWE’s ranks.
