LA Knight: I Should Have Been Here A Long Time Ago, But I Appreciate The Way I’ve Had To Go About It
LA Knight says he should have been in this position quite a long time ago.
Knight, who is set to compete in the 2023 Men’s Money In The Bank Match, is on one of the hottest runs of his career, as he is currently one of the biggest fan favorites in WWE.
Before coming to WWE in 2021, Knight spent a number of years in IMPACT Wrestling and the National Wrestling Alliance.
While speaking to Digital Spy for a new interview, Knight went into detail about his journey to WWE and how he looks at it in a number of ways.
“I look back on the journey very fondly in a lot of ways. At the same time, I look back at it with a lot of frustration and a lot of anger because I should have been here a long time ago. I should have been doing this and and having this match and all this stuff a long, long time ago. Although, at the same time, I appreciate what I’ve done and the way I’ve had to go about it and the fact that I’ve just gotten to live the life that I’ve gotten to live, particularly over the last 10 years.”
Knight then went on to discuss the say that there’s still so much more to come for him in wrestling.
“Right around the time I turned 30, everything just kind of took an upswing. It’s very mixed feelings because there’s a lot of me that’s just a frustrated, angry guy that this has not happened much sooner, but at the same time that peaceful side of me is just like, ‘Hey, it’s been a good run, it’s been good journey’. And there’s still so much more to come.”
