If LA Knight will not be competing in either Brand's main championships, then he must be given a match comparable to a Stone Cold vs. Bret Hart at Wrestlemania, or a Shawn Michaels vs Razon Roman type of match. But could he have a match as memorable as HBK vs Taker 2? Well, let's see.
Most likely Roman Reigns will defend his title against the Rock or Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins will defend his title against either Cody Rhodes or maybe Jey Uso. Rollins may drop the title to Cody and Reigns may very well successfully defend against the the Rock, but where is that going to leave the Mega-star?
Who can be the mega-star's complementing opponent? Off the top of most people's heads, Brock Lesnar comes to mind as someone who can keep La Knight in a competitive storyline comparable to his peers. However, Brock Lesnar is a kind of a go-to when WWE is looking to keep an up-and-coming superstar relevant before getting the strap. So, here are 6 more superstars that would give LA Knight, a banger at Wrestlemania both in storyline and in-ring.
1. John Cena
John Cena will more than likely have his last match coming up either this Wrestlemania or next Wrestlemania. Having a feud with LA Knight would be a memorable match either in 2024 or 2025 but having them both be faces could work as well, however turning LA knight heel would probably be the best way to go if these two were to go at it in an all out war.
2. Kevin Owens
It seems now KO and La Knight are playing nice with each other as they face off with Grayson Waller and Austin Theory. However, like Cena, KO is currently running as a face but KO could easily turn heel on La Knight creating a storyline with a lot of heat and attention if done right.
3. Grayson Waller / Austin Theory
Having a one on one with either one of these guys could result in the Mega Star having an incredibly memorable match, especially if there was some stakes raising stipulation. It could be a ladder match for a contract to go to Raw and face the WWE champion of Raw at Summer Slam.
4. Logan Paul (us championship)
Having LA Knight challenge Logan Paul at Wrestlemania for the United States Championship may be the best choice for the Mega Star in terms of creating a great Wrestlemania moment. A victory here would be exactly what LA Knight would need to keep him relevant moving forward in 2024
CONCLUSION
While all of these could be potential bangers for LA Knight, we have to ask ourselves what made those previous WM matches have such a high caliber value and the reason, other than the match itself, was the story and the stakes.
The story and the stakes make everything. In the case of Stone cold and Bret Hart, the stakes were high because they were both needing to be the number 1 contender against Sid or Taker, but no stakes were higher than a career match similar to Taker-HBK 2 or Savage-Warrior 1.
Putting LA Knight in a situation to where is career could be at risk, may elevate any of these matches to a high value match. The idea that LA Knight could lose it all just right before his career is about to blow up is a element that would add a lot of drama to any of his coming Wrestlemania matches and put all of his fans on the edge of their seats.
