LA Knight Addresses His Loss At WWE Money In The Bank
Last weekend, WWE held its annual Money in the Bank event. The men's ladder match had a star-studded cast that included Butch, Santos Escobar, Logan Paul, Damian Priest, LA Knight, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Ricochet. Despite being relatively new to the WWE main roster, rising star LA Knight was the fan favorite to win the bout.

This was a polarizing move on WWE's part that left a lot of fans soured. LA Knight, however, is determined to not let this disappointment hold him back.
LA Knight Says He Will Be A Champ "Sooner Or Later"
At a WWE live event after MITB, LA Knight spoke to the crowd about his loss and future plans in WWE. Fightful has provided the following transcription of what he said:
I stand here right now thinking about what happened last night. That case, hanging up there, in my grasp, about to pull it down. At long last, it comes down in the hands of who? Who? Who cares. It didn't come down in the hands of LA Knight. Here's how it goes. I haven't been given anything since I walked through the door, let's face facts, and here I stand, top of the industry. Here I stand, the man, all over the place, everywhere you go. Everywhere, all around the round, it's the same song, and how's that song go? With everybody saying [crowd cheers LA Knight]. It's for that reason. The reason ain't y'all. The reason is me. You can feel cool saying my name all you want, but I don't need y'all, let's be honest. I didn't need that case either. Just like I made myself a top man in this industry is the same way, with or without a case, I will make myself a champion sooner or later, and there ain't nobody that can stop me. That's not an insult. That's just a fact of life.
It's unclear at the moment what's next for LA Knight in WWE. Fans will have to stay tuned and see if/when LA Knight is provided another title opportunity.
