LA Knight comments on his King of the Ring bout.
LA Knight advanced in the WWE King of the Ring tournament, defeating Santos Escobar at a live event over the weekend. Choice first round matches in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments were moved from WWE Raw and WWE SmackDown to weekend live events.
Taking to social media, Knight commented on the fan support and the move.
I appreciate everyone saying this match should’ve been on TV. But, no need to throw live event crowds under the bus.

Live events are where the @WWE roster has as much fun as possible.
Not only having a great match, but a match with HUGE stakes makes the live events more fun!-- https://t.co/VojlY86f8d
