WWE Star LA Knight has offered up some unexpected praise to one member of the roster he is very familiar with.
After defeating AJ Styles at WrestleMania 40, Knight set out to finally win a championship on the main roster. Although The Megastar came up short in the Money in the Bank match, he would later cross paths with then-United States Champion Logan Paul.
With the match being made official for SummerSlam, Knight looked to prove the doubters wrong after coming up short so many times in the past 12 months. In one of the most popular results on the show, Knight defeated Paul to win the US Title in a victory that many felt was long overdue.
While Knight has had his issues with Paul over the years, the former United States Champion is able to appreciate what the social media star has accomplished inside the squared circle. Speaking with Justin on Casual Conversations with The Wrestling Classic, Knight put over Paul’s athleticism and willingness to try the more risky moves:
“He’s a hell of an athlete. He can do all kinds of wild things that I wouldn’t even want to try or begin to try. Sometimes, it’s almost like he’s got a death wish with some of these things. But he’s got a willingness to go in there and do just about anything. He’s still honestly in a lot of ways just getting started, he’s still got a long way to go in that regard. But he’s still willing to figure things out and put his all into it, I can say that.”
