Popular WWE SmackDown Star To Feud With Seth Rollins Faction
A SmackDown star is heading to Raw to feud with Seth Rollins’ faction.
Much of LA Knight’s 2025 has revolved around the United States Championship after he won the gold from Shinsuke Nakamura. But Knight later lost the title to Jacob Fatu at WrestleMania 41, before failing to win it back at Backlash.
Since then, Knight has turned his attention to the World Championship, although he’s again fallen short. The star missed out in the men’s Money In The Bank Ladder Match and then lost in qualifying for King of the Ring.
With an uncertain path on SmackDown, it’s now been reported that LA Knight could move to Raw on a permanent basis in an effort to freshen up his character.
LA Knight Vs. Seth Rollins?
Off the back of that report, Dave Meltzer wrote in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that while Raw won’t be “home base” for Knight, he’s set to step up his rivalry with Seth Rollins’ faction. In recent weeks, he cost Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed victories on the show.
“On LA Knight to Raw, he will be and is doing a program with the Paul Heyman group and Raw guys and Smackdown guys aren’t strict at all. But no move to Raw right now as a home base, but he’ll be on the show at times.”
There have also been reports that WWE is looking to add Ethan Page and Ricky Saints to the faction headed up by Rollins. In recent months, the pair has been rivals rather than allies, while feuding over the North American Championship in NXT.
There have been several reports that Saints will be moving to the main roster in the coming weeks after the successful call-ups of Roxanne Perez, Giulia, and Stephanie Vaquer.
