Ahead of his first defence, WWE United States Champion LA Knight says he wants to have a record reign with his title.
At WWE SummerSlam 2024, LA Knight defeated Logan Paul to win the United States Championship. This marked Knight’s first official singles title win since re-signing with WWE in 2021.
Speaking during a signing at FanaticsFest NYC, LA Knight stated his intentions to be a fighting champion and plans on holding the title for a million days. He said:
“I ain’t worried about dream opponents, I’m worried about holding this champion,”
“Everybody is making record reigns lately, right? I have to make a record reign at this point. Logan Paul was almost a year, 260-something days. I’m not concerned with any of that.”
“We have to go 1,000 days, 2,000 days, 3,000 days, 4,000 days, 5,000 days, we might go a million damn days. I ain’t worried about dream opponents. I’m worried about the dream of keeping this (reign) alive forever.”
Knight will defend the United States Championship for the first time against Santos Escobar on the August 23 edition of Friday Night SmackDown.
