In a recent showdown at WWE’s LTIN tournament, LA Knight faced off against The Miz in what turned out to be an anticipated yet ultimately predictable match. The Miz, who had cleverly maneuvered his way into this bout by tricking WWE official Nick Aldis, came into the match following a loss to Jey on November 14. Conversely, Knight had secured a victory over Zack Ryder on the same night, giving him a head start in momentum.
Before the match began, Chelsea Green made an appearance to celebrate her recent triumph in winning the U.S. title. However, the segment was interrupted by Jade Cargill, who took down Green with her finishing move, Jaded, leaving a brief but impactful impression on the audience.
When the match between Knight and The Miz commenced, both competitors displayed their impressive wrestling skills and experience. Despite their capabilities, the reveal of The Miz as Knight’s opponent was considered a letdown by some fans, as it didn’t carry the surprise and excitement expected in such tournaments. The match, while executed well, did not offer any unexpected twists and ended with Knight prevailing after delivering his signature BFT move, allowing him to advance to the semifinals.
The match earned a grade of C, reflecting the sentiment that while both performers are talented in their craft, the buildup and conclusion fell flat for many viewers. Nonetheless, Knight’s advancement in the tournament keeps the momentum going for his character, potentially leading to more engaging matchups in the future. As the tournament unfolds, fans remain hopeful for more thrilling moments ahead.
