On a recent edition of the “Gorilla Position” podcast, WWE Superstar LA Knight revealed whether he’s ever spoken to WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash.
Nash has publicly criticized Knight’s WWE run and even called him a “ripoff of The Rock.”
Knight said, “No, but I’ve had conversations with his friends about it and they’ve all been like, ‘Ah, don’t listen to this stuff.’ Whatever. What am I going to do, worry about that? In a certain sense, there is one part of me that’s like, if this guy wants to take food off my table, that’s cool. It’s a piece of s*** move, but that’s cool. At the same time, why am I going to bother thinking too much about it?”
Bronson Reed feels dejected after failing to secure an Intercontinental Title shot by winning the Gauntlet Match on Monday’s episode of WWE RAW.
Reed tweeted, “No chamber. No mania. How the mighty have fallen.”
Sami Zayn won the match by pinning Chad Gable. Zayn will now challenge GUNTHER for the WWE Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 40.
No chamber.
No mania.How the mighty have fallen.

WWE Superstar LA Knight Responds to Kevin Nash’s Criticism
In the world of professional wrestling, it’s not uncommon for wrestlers to face criticism from both fans and fellow wrestlers. Recently, WWE Superstar LA Knight found himself on the receiving end of some harsh words from WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash. Nash publicly criticized Knight’s WWE run, going as far as calling him a “ripoff of The Rock.” However, Knight has now responded to Nash’s comments in a recent interview on the “Gorilla Position” podcast.
During the podcast, Knight was asked if he had ever spoken to Kevin Nash about the criticism. Knight revealed that he had not personally spoken to Nash but had conversations with Nash’s friends who advised him not to pay attention to the negative comments. Knight expressed his indifference towards Nash’s criticism, stating, “What am I going to do, worry about that? In a certain sense, there is one part of me that’s like, if this guy wants to take food off my table, that’s cool. It’s a piece of s*** move, but that’s cool. At the same time, why am I going to bother thinking too much about it?”
Knight’s response showcases his resilience and determination to focus on his own career rather than getting caught up in negativity. It’s not uncommon for wrestlers to face criticism and comparisons to other successful wrestlers, especially when they are new to the industry. However, Knight’s ability to brush off the comments and stay focused on his goals is commendable.
In addition to Knight’s response, another WWE Superstar, Bronson Reed, also expressed his disappointment after failing to secure an Intercontinental Title shot. Reed took to Twitter to share his feelings, stating, “No chamber. No mania. How the mighty have fallen.” Reed had participated in a Gauntlet Match on Monday’s episode of WWE RAW but was unable to come out victorious.
Sami Zayn emerged as the winner of the Gauntlet Match, earning himself a shot at the WWE Intercontinental Championship against GUNTHER at WrestleMania 40. While Reed’s tweet reflects his disappointment, it also highlights the competitive nature of the wrestling industry. Wrestlers constantly strive for opportunities to showcase their skills and achieve success, and when those opportunities slip away, it can be disheartening.
Overall, the responses from LA Knight and Bronson Reed shed light on the challenges and emotions that wrestlers face in their careers. Criticism and missed opportunities are part of the journey, but it’s how wrestlers handle these setbacks that define their character. Knight’s ability to remain focused and not let criticism affect him, and Reed’s determination to bounce back from disappointment, are qualities that will serve them well in their future endeavors in the WWE.
