The rise of LA Knight cannot be stopped.
Since winning the Slim Jim Battle Royal at SummerSlam, Knight has been riding high. Knight’s skyrocketing popularity, however, has irked one of WWE’s most tenured Superstars, The Miz.
The Awesome One was irate with Knight’s ascendance, confronting the megastar on Raw after Knight took up Miz’s photo shoot time.
Despite The Miz explaining his disdain for Knight, The A-Lister was left looking up at the lights following a BFT from his adversary.
The animosity continued with cheap shots and interferences during each other's matches. On SmackDown, Knight had an opportunity to become No. 1 Contender to the United States Championship, but his chance was squandered after The A-Lister got involved to cause Knight to lose to Austin Theory.
The following Raw, The Miz thought he had an easy victory against Akira Tozawa, but Knight played mind games with The A-Lister. With Knight at ringside, The Miz was thrown off his game, and he lost to Tozawa via a roll-up in a moment that stunned and humiliated The Awesome One.
In a battle between two of WWE’s biggest loudmouths, who will leave WWE Payback with the most bark? Don’t miss WWE Payback on Saturday, Sept. 2, at 8 ET/5 PT, streaming LIVE on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network everywhere else.
