Noting that Knight is now viewed as the #1 babyface on SmackDown, WrestleVotes tweeted:
The latest “talent board”, which is used internally, saw an update post Payback on 9/3. Interesting news from the SmackDown side lists LA Knight as the top babyface. In addition, Bobby Lashley & The Street Profits are now categorized as heels.
