Seth Rollins Says Sky Is The Limit For LA Knight, Addresses Comparisons To The Rock

LA Knight has a lot of potential.

If you ask Seth “Freakin'” Rollins, the rising WWE Superstar has no limit to how high he can rise within the ranks in the company.

During a recent interview with FoxNews.com, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion explained why he thinks the sky is the limit for LA Knight.

“Everybodyโ€™s just hitting right at the right time,” Rollins said. “And the LA Knight thing, heโ€™s got a call and response thing with the audience. Heโ€™s got that feeling that heโ€™s being held down a little bit. Heโ€™s got that chip on his shoulder. And, in some ways, heโ€™s just a throwback to the Attitude Era.”

Rollins would go on to address the comparisons Knight has received to WWE legends, most notably, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

“I know heโ€™s received a lot of comparisons to The Rock and โ€˜Stone Coldโ€™ Steve Austin, some people mocking him for that,” Rollins said. “But, I mean, those two are some of the most popular superstars in the history of our industry. I think any comparison youโ€™re going to get to them, especially from a popularity standpoint, is a win.”

The WWE World Heavyweight Champion concluded, “I think the skyโ€™s the limit for him. Iโ€™m looking forward to seeing kind of where this renewed, invigorated passion for LA Knight kinda leads his character and leads him in the next year. Itโ€™s really going to be fascinating to watch.”
