In a WWE SmackDown episode that had fans on the edge of their seats, LA Knight took everyone on a nostalgic journey during a contract signing with the reigning WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, on October 27.
On that memorable Friday night, Roman Reigns, the undisputed WWE Universal Champion, and the brash LA Knight came face to face to sign their match agreement for WWE Crown Jewel. What followed was an intense showdown that began with Knight making a bold statement.
Disrupting Reigns’ grand entrance, LA Knight confidently strolled past the champion and seated himself at the head of the table, sending an unmistakable message. This electrifying moment set the tone for the rest of the contract signing.
Tensions flared as Knight vowed to claim the coveted championship gold, emphasizing his determination to succeed. Roman Reigns, ever the consummate champion, pointed out Knight’s relative inexperience in high-profile title matches.
But it was LA Knight’s audacious move that sent shockwaves through the WWE universe. In a daring gambit, Knight harkened back to Reigns’ notorious “Sufferin’ Succotash” promo from 2015.
This jab didn’t sit well with the Tribal Chief, who, in a fit of rage, flipped the table and mercilessly attacked LA Knight, displaying his fierce determination to protect his legacy.
As the contract signing reached a boiling point, Jimmy Uso rushed to Reigns’ side. But even with backup, Knight didn’t back down. In a jaw-dropping moment, Knight overpowered Uso and sent him crashing through a table.
In a world where words and actions hold equal weight, LA Knight’s memorable reference to “Sufferin’ Succotash” added a new layer of intrigue to the impending showdown with Roman Reigns. With the contract signed, fans are now eagerly anticipating what will unfold at WWE Crown Jewel.
