The Mountain Dew-sponsored Pitch Black match with Bray Wyatt was a challenge for LA Knight, but one that the popular Superstar was glad to take on.

In Wyatt’s only televised match since returning to WWE, the former Universal Champion defeated Knight, who was attacked after the match by Uncle Howdy.

In the months since the Pitch Black match, Knight has become one of WWE’s most popular Superstars and won the Slim Jim Battle Royal last weekend at SummerSlam.
