Speaking to Alex McCarthy of Daily Mail, Knight was asked if he caught up with "The Great One."

"I mean, just a quick kind of, you know, bro hug and 'Hey, man, how you been? You're doing great awesome!' You know, all that kind of stuff. But at least it was a quick little 'good to see again,'" he recalled.

It is unknown when The Rock will return to WWE television.

LA Knight will be front and center of WWE TV at WWE Crown Jewel when he challenges Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
