Professional wrestler LA Knight has expressed his concern over the increasing involvement of celebrities in the wrestling industry. While it is not uncommon for famous faces to step inside the ring for cross-promotional purposes, Knight argues that not everyone has the athleticism and skills required to be a wrestler. He pointed out that matches involving celebrities have evolved to make them the focal point, giving the impression that anyone can be a wrestler, which is not the case.
Knight specifically mentioned celebrities like Logan Paul and Bad Bunny, who have successfully transitioned into wrestling, but noted that it requires a certain level of physicality and athleticism that not everyone possesses. He highlighted the WrestleMania 27 match featuring reality TV star Snooki as an example of a celebrity who did not belong in the ring.
Prior to joining WWE, Knight was known as Eli Drake in TNA, where he won multiple championships. He also discussed the ongoing partnership between WWE and TNA, stating that talent exchanges between the two promotions will continue in the future. Knight’s comments on celebrity involvement and the collaboration between WWE and TNA were made during an interview on the Battleground podcast.
