LA Knight and The Miz have crossed paths recently as the former took shots at the A-Lister. This didn't sit well with the former WWE Champion, who teased an appearance on SmackDown.
Tonight on the blue brand, during the Grayson Waller Effect, LA Knight appeared to confront Austin Theory. He said he didn't care who was the United States Champion because he would eventually win that title. He then challenged Theory to a number one contender's match for the United States Championship.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
