LA Knight, also known as the Megastar of WWE, has been causing trouble for the members of The Bloodline faction, including Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso, over the past few weeks. This all began after he partnered with John Cena for WWE Fastlane 2023.
However, in a recent live event match, The Megastar took a direct shot at the leader of The Bloodline faction by delivering a BFT. This has ignited a direct rivalry between the Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns and LA Knight.
LA Knight delivers trifecta of BFT
On last Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown, the show was opened by John Cena. The leader of Cenation was delivering a promo but he was soon interrupted by Roman Reigns aka The Tribal Chief. Reigns came to the ring to warn Cena to stay away from him and his title. Cena answered this by saying that he was not going to challenge him but someone else was going to challenge him.
After that, LA Knight entered the ring and confronted Roman Reigns. The Megastar threw a challenge to Reigns, but The Tribal Chief deflected the situation and his faction members attacked Knight. But The Megastar was able to take down Jimmy Uso. Later in the main event, Solo Sikoa suffered a defeat against LA Knight. But after that Roman delivered a Spear to Knight and the show ended with that.
However, LA Knight has taken his revenge on Reigns during a live event at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri. Roman Reigns was defending his title against Sami Zayn in that live event. After Reigns secured his victory, Sami was attacked by all The Bloodline members and LA Knight came to Zayn’s rescue. During this whole brawl, Knight took out Solo Sikoa and delivered a brutal BFT to the Universal Champion.
LA Knight sends 4-word message to Roman Reigns
Both Knight and Reigns have never crossed paths with each other directly up until now. But this unexpected scenario happened on the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown. After their encounter on WWE Smackdown, LA Knight delivered a warning to the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. This indicates the rivalry between these two superstars is already in motion.
LA Knight has hinted at the possibility of challenging Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship. Over the past few weeks, Knight has been regularly clashing with The Bloodline faction members, but he hadn’t yet confronted The Head of the Table.
As soon as Roman returned to SmackDown, the challenge was thrown from Knight’s side. Taking to Twitter, Knight shared a photo of himself with Roman Reigns’ reflection in his sunglasses. In the caption, Knight wrote: “You’re in my way.”
