LA Knight Set for Major Showdown with Seth Rollins at Night of Champions 2025
Exciting Matchup on the Horizon
Although LA Knight did not secure a victory at Money in the Bank, he is set to face a significant challenge at Night of Champions 2025. Reports indicate that he will be going head-to-head with Seth Rollins, the eventual winner of the Money in the Bank briefcase.
As per sources from a wrestling news outlet, LA Knight is expected to initiate a rivalry with Seth Rollins leading up to the Night of Champions event, scheduled for later this month in Saudi Arabia. With Rollins now holding the Money in the Bank briefcase, he has the flexibility to appear on any WWE brand, and it seems he will target Smackdown to kick off this feud with Knight.
While no official plans have been confirmed, there is speculation regarding the King of the Ring tournament bracket. Both competitors are positioned on opposite sides, suggesting that WWE may be setting up a clash between Knight and Rollins in the tournament finals at Night of Champions 2025.
The decision to feature LA Knight in a prominent match at such a significant event may stem from the overwhelming fan support he has received, highlighted by the viral #WeWantLAKnight campaign on social media. Fans are eager for Knight to receive meaningful storylines, especially after his recent near-misses at winning Money in the Bank.
Seth Rollins made an appearance on WWE Raw this week, where he teased both John Cena and CM Punk with the Money in the Bank briefcase during their confrontation. Following this, Cena and Punk have been scheduled to compete in a WWE Championship match at the Night of Champions 2025 event.
