"Not only are they looking for me to become world champ sometime soon, but I'm looking to become the WWE Universal Champion sooner than later," Knight said during an appearance on KTAL NBC 6 when it was noted that they were rooting for him to become champion.

When asked what his dream match was, Knight responded, "Dream matches, you think about people from the past who aren't doing it anymore. There are a couple of those. Everyone is talking about it again, the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, that makes me look at Roman Reigns. Even Gunther, with the Intercontinental Championship. Austin Theory for the United States Championship. Any one of those guys, who I could take a piece of gold off of, that would be my dream match."

Knight is scheduled to be in action at WWE live events during the weekend and is advertised to face Drew McIntyre.

Woods, the man who defeated Knight on the April 14 episode of WWE SmackDown, will challenge for the Intercontinental Championship on the April 21 episode of WWE SmackDown.
