We’re living in the world of LA Knight as he has climbed to the top of WWE by endearing himself to the fans organically, a feat only a few can achieve. His exceptional mic skills and immense charisma make him one of the most captivating figures in professional wrestling at the moment.
He’s being cheered from Saudi Arabia to London, and it reached a point where WWE could no longer ignore the Megastar. Additionally, he once again topped WWE’s monthly merchandise sales.

The ascent of the Megastar is a story for the history books, as he has transformed into a superstar overnight with the unwavering support of the WWE Universe. Since WWE converted him into a babyface, he has consistently received eardrum-shattering ovations and reactions whenever he has appeared in any arena across the globe. Although it did take some time for WWE to acknowledge his rise, they are now fully committed to him, with a long-term contract on the horizon.
It was revealed that he was the top merchandise seller in October followed by John Cena, Cody Rhodes, and Stone Cold. Even during Premium Live Events such as Money in the Bank, the in-house merchandise sales were dominated by LA Knight. His meteoric rise has been a special thing to watch and it’ll be interesting to see whether he’ll be a match for The Tribal Chief and Undisputed Universal Champion, Roman Reigns.

The stage is set for Crown Jewel, and there’s a lot of excitement as we head to Saudi Arabia for the bi-annual Premium Live Event, as part of a deal. The Saudi shows have been impressive since Triple H took over, and they began taking them seriously. The card for tomorrow is incredibly stacked, with multiple matches that could serve as the main event. But it’s almost certain that Roman Reigns Vs. LA Knight will headline the Premium Live Event.
As pointed out by The Tribal Chief last week, this will be LA Knight’s first title bout in the WWE at the age of 40. Roman Reigns even took credit for making him relevant and turning LA Knight into the megastar he always thought he was. But the build-up to this match has a different feel to it and it’ll be epic to see a loud Saudi crowd fully behind LA Knight as he takes on the Head of the Table for the Undisputed Universal Championship.
An LA Knight win might blow the roof off the arena and it remains a real possibility. Will WWE pull the trigger and crown LA Knight Undisputed Universal Championship at Crown Jewel? Discuss in the comments.
