You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On how Trick Williams has improved: “They have to see enough of him to where they go, ‘Alright. We put the NXT Championship on him. We handed him the ball. He has done very well with it. His matches have gotten better. His promos have gotten better. The fans chant for him even louder if that’s possible. Okay, we have something strong for him on the main roster. Let’s bring him up now and plug him in and see how he’ll do.’”
On the objective in WWE: “Because the objective in WWE is not just to stay great in NXT. It’s to constantly move up the ladder of success, make more money, higher up on the card, and become a worldwide draw for the company.”
During a recent appearance on the “The KiddChris Show,” WWE Superstar LA Knight commented on his WWE WrestleMania 40 Media Day brawl with AJ Styles and how it came about.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his brawl with AJ Styles during a WrestleMania press event: “It was kind of silly for them to sit us next to each other. What did they expect was going to happen. Things blew up, he slammed me down, but when we came out of it, he had a bloody nose.”
On how the brawl happened spontaneously: “Nope. Legitimately, I walked in the room…the set up is a big press junket and there were a bunch of different seats set out. Of all the seats that were set together, his and mine were within five feet of each other. I kind of looked over there and I was said to myself, ‘There’s a good chance we might have to fight at some point.’ I was just thinking that to myself. At some point, he tossed a stool that he was sitting on over in my direction. I was like, ‘Welp, gotta fight him now.’ That’s pretty much how it goes.”

Okay, we have something strong for him on the main roster.'”
Ray’s comments shed light on the objective in WWE, which is not just to excel in NXT but to constantly progress and achieve greater success on the main roster. The company aims to elevate its talents, allowing them to make more money, climb higher on the card, and become worldwide draws.
