fwiw... I do not think it's farfetched to assume Logan could've been "the culprit" in this story, when you hear it for the first time, because he certainly has a special standing in the roster and company.

I still think it’s a nothing Burger at large but my assessment is that if there was somebody getting their shit in it’s still more Paul than LA Knight.

But also upon seeing it on the tv there was plenty of room but priest drives Drew to the left for some reason and gets into Knight’s way.

I mean yea, at the end of the day, it doesn't sound like something really outrageous happened. Heck... maybe it's an actual work and setup even? The way Drew's social media work had been a part of his character for some time now, I wouldn't be surprised if this was actually part of the whole thing.

Considering Knight later eliminated priests it very well could be at work.

Now that I know Cena is going to be in the chamber match. I’m thinking they’re probably gonna do a triple threat between Drew Priest and LA Knight.

Idk if it came from the recent Fightful report or elsewhere but I did read the timing was fucked before Logan's entrance and Drew was actually supposed to be eliminated before it. They were doing fake intervals more obvious than usual this year so seems hard for them to have mistimed that unless someone just started the countdown too early. Roman and Charlotte took 5 mins to get to the ring and still got spots in before the timer started for them lol

That explains it then. I’ve said from the very beginning that the thing that Ellie Knight was doing, was very clearly a plan spot so if they were supposed to be out of the ring before that that makes sense.

Also, the kayfabe explanation is probably gonna be something like the timer doesn’t start until they officially hit the ring or some such nonsense.

They don't need a kayfabe explanation bc only people with stopwatches care lol

We’re nerds on the Internet though so we often come up with dumb explanations for things so that was just my guess.
