After a forgettable stint as the manager of a stable of models that almost ended his second stint with WWE, LA Knight caught fire on the main roster in 2023. But with arenas full of fans shouting \u201cYEAH\u201d along with Knight, wrestling legend Kevin Nash was saying \u201cNAH\u201d to LA.<\/p>\n

Big Sexy called Knight \u201can absolute ripoff\u201d<\/a> of stars like The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, and joked<\/a> that his good buddy Paul \u201cTriple H\u201d Levesque had offered LA a Legends deal as a result.<\/p>\n

The two men got a chance to talk face-to-face at SummerSlam last year though, and according to Nash there was \u201cno heat\u201d<\/a> between them over his remarks \u2014 or Knight\u2019s comebacks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Relations between them may have improved even more since then. On the latest edition of Nash\u2019s Kliq This podcast<\/a>, he\u2019s now advocating for an LA Knight World championship reign:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019ll tell you what. We gave him a lot of shit early in this show, that he was a copycat and everything else \u2014 and I really appreciate him. He\u2019s a fucking solid hand. The people like him. He would definitely be on my list of guys to give a run to, to give a World run to. The only problem is, he\u2019s a babyface\u2026 his work\u2019s always been solid\u2026 I was just gonna say also, that fucker stays in fucking really good shape.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Given his popularity, there may not be much that can be done about Nash\u2019s one remaining problem with LA. But maybe in another year Big Kev won\u2019t think that\u2019s an issue either.<\/p>\n
