That’s not a terrible idea. Would be the 2nd time he’s been cashed in on. And him getting frustrated and just snapping would make sense. Think we can all agree that the heel turn is inevitable.

What's even more crazy is that it wasn't even a continuous upwards trajectory either when you think about it.

Weird shit with Bray which was super good for him then was left off of Mania in LA, don't really remember too much of what happened then until like MITB where people were pissed he didn't win that. Involved in something with the US Title which seemed like it was going to be his lane but didn't pull the trigger on that either which frustrated people even more. Then it was the Miz feud and onto the main event with Cena.

2023 has been arguably the best year of his career.

You can make the argument he’s the only person to work with Bray Wyatt(God rest his soul) and come out of it better than he was going into it.

When Cody was on the indies, he used to say that he went from “Undesirable to Undeniable”. LA Knight is living that right now

20231013_Crown_Jewel_Match_Roman_LA_FC_date--54e061500e0f3760d700351493956d5c.jpg

Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns vs. LA Knight​

At WWE Crown Jewel, Roman Reigns will go one-on-one with LA Knight for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. The news was first reported by the LA Times.

On the Season Premiere of Friday Night SmackDown, The Greatest of All Time himself, John Cena, brought Knight face-to-face with Reigns, and the would-be challenger didn't flitch for a second before knocking a disruptive Jimmy Uso clean out of the ring. Later that evening, Knight defeated Solo Sikoa one-on-one, only to suffer an earth-shattering Spear by The Head of The Table.

One of the most dominant World Champions of all time, Reigns is enjoying a legendary title reign that stands at well over 1,000 days, winning epic battles against Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens, Drew McIntyre and many more. As he presides over The Bloodline with an iron fist on The Island of Relevancy, The Head of the Table stands armed with a brutal arsenal and seems unstoppable.

But "let me talk to ya!" LA Knight's charisma has helped make him the fastest-rising star in SmackDown history. While his ever-growing popularity may seem unimportant once the bell rings, Knight has fed off the power of the WWE Universe before, and he seems capable of turning that mighty force against The Head of the Table. He also carries an unwavering confidence, an extremely hard-hitting style and an unpredictable attack. Together, these factors arguably make him one of the most unique threats that the elite titleholder has faced in some time. "Yeah!"

United States Champion Rey Mysterio vs. Logan Paul​

At WWE Crown Jewel,The Social Media Megastar has an eye for gold, specifically the United States Title being held by Rey Mysterio.

Paul has yet to win a WWE championship, despite coming close against Roman Reigns at WWE Crown Jewel last year.

Paul called his shot soon after defeating Dillon Danis in a boxing match, declaring that he was coming for Rey Mysterio’s United States Title.

When Paul confronted Mysterio on the Oct. 20 episode of SmackDown, The Social Media Megastar explained his reasons for targeting the United States Champion, shaking Mysterio’s hand and vowing to let the best man win.

Paul defeated Mysterio on The Grandest Stage of Them All, albeit in tag team match with The Miz against Rey and Dominik Mysterio at WrestleMania 38 in Paul’s first-ever match. Much has changed since then, setting the stage for a monumental conflict.

Can Paul capture his first title in WWE, or will the WWE Hall of Famer hold on to the U.S. Title?

---------

Logan gonna win the title isn't he :banderas:

Is there a backup venue with all the turmoil in the middle east, or are talent going to be subjected to dangerous times once more?

I forgot who mentioned it but a couple weeks back, someone brought up idea of Paul winning the US title just to turn around and drop it to LA Knight.

I could see them going that route.

If that match happened I'd be terrified Logan beats Knight but that would be solid lmao I do think Knight should just have that belt for awhile, he's obviously not beating Roman

Knight might get a big title win at Mania or something. Obviously he's gonna be a heavy favourite in the Rumble and gonna be in the final four.
