LA Knight doesn't need Ted DiBiase.
Ted DiBiase was more than happy to award LA Knight with the Million Dollar Championship on Tuesday's NXT, and while Knight was happy to accept it, he wasn't happy to have DiBiase by his side. Knight said, "Now that I have everything that I want, it's time to drop everything I don't need" before attacking DiBiase.
Cameron Grimes made the save for DiBiase.

Knight won the Million Dollar Championship by defeating Grimes at NXT TakeOver: In Your House by outracing him to the top in a ladder match.
DiBiase brought back the Million Dollar Championship on Tuesday's NXT, putting the belt up for grabs in the ladder match. DiBiase first introduced the Million Dollar Title in 1989 and it lasted until 1992. DiBiase brought back the title in 1995, awarding it to "The Ringmaster" Steve Austin. It was then brought back in 2010 with DiBiase giving it to his son Ted DiBiase Jr. It had not been seen since Old School Edition of Raw in November 2010.
