On the latest episode of WWE SmackDown, United States Champion LA Knight sent a strong message to his upcoming opponent Shinsuke Nakamura. Knight, who has been the champion since SummerSlam, issued a warning to Nakamura ahead of their title match at Survivor Series.
The two stars will be facing off in a highly anticipated match at the Premium Live Event, with Knight looking to retain his title. However, Nakamura is a formidable opponent, and Knight knows he needs to be at the top of his game to come out on top.
The tension between the two men is already building, and Knight’s promo on SmackDown only added to the intensity. After Nakamura won his match against Andrade, Knight had a chance to address the crowd and respond to his impending challenger.
Knight began by pointing out that Nakamura had been absent from the WWE scene for a while, only to return and suddenly have a problem with him. He then took aim at Nakamura’s character, saying that he should have a problem with him because he is the United States Champion.
However, Knight made it clear that he is not going to take it easy on his opponent at Survivor Series. He promised to look Nakamura dead in the eyes and deliver a devastating three-strike combination to the back of his head. Knight’s message was loud and clear: he is ready for Nakamura and is confident that he will emerge victorious.
Nakamura, on the other hand, has been quiet so far, but it is clear that he is eager to get his hands on the United States Championship. He sprayed Knight with the poison mist during the aftermath of his match against Andrade, temporarily blinding him. This move could be a sign that Nakamura is willing to do whatever it takes to win the title.
