Diamond Dallas Page thinks WWE need to give LA Knight the push he deserves.
The 43-year-old has been over with WWE fans for three years solid, but he is yet to get a world title run despite being a top babyface in the company.
He was recently written off WWE TV after an attack from The Vision but when he returns in the New Year, WWE Hall of Famer DDP wants to see him put in a top position.
Speaking to Chris van Vliet, DDP said: “I love that kid, man. I love the tenacity, the stick-to-it. It took him a long time to get to that character.
“And he was good before that, but now he’s great. Hopefully at some point he gets a chance to really get that ball, because he can run with it.
“Give him that damn ball, because that cat — he’s got it all.
“And people who say that he’s mimicking this character or that character, that’s so wrong. He’s a piece of all that.
“He grew up on all of us, coming up wanting to do what we do, and now he’s doing it at its highest level.”
Knight took the long route to WWE via stints in TNA and NWA notably. But after arriving in NXT in 2021, Knight very quickly connected with the fans and hasn’t looked back.
The Megastar himself has admitted there is a danger that fans will get tired of him not winning the big matches and the big prizes if the company doesn’t push him.
“I appreciate every single bit of what they give me, I feed off of that stuff. “
As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t be in the position I am without them if I’m honest, especially with how everything blew up a couple of years ago and how it has continued on, the people made me.
“I can’t take that away from them, and I thank them to the hilt. At the same time, Let’s say at some point they’re not with me, I can’t worry about that, I’ve got to do me, I’ve got to keep doing me.”
