LA Knight has seen a surge of popularity in the mix in recent times. Given his largely elevated status among fans, it’s not a jump to think that he has already risen to the good graces of most WWE veterans. But it’s not true. No matter how much success Knight scores in his career or how many stars or fans sing praise on his extraordinary talent, one WWE legend going soft on him sounds all but impossible.

Going against the popular sentiment, they have been an open critic of LA Knight for months. More so to the point that they recently garnered massive pushback from fans calling Knight a rip-off of The Rock. It even propelled the 64-year-old to issue an apology later. But his latest claim about Knight proved that the apology was only an eyewash.

Kevin Nash inflated The Miz to launch another insult at LA Knight 

On a recent episode of Raw, The Miz was seen mocking LA Knight in a segment and it seemed to dazzle Nash. The veteran might not be a fan of Knight, but it seems like he’s already a fan of Knight’s impersonator. Watching his antics closely, Nash spoke highly of The Miz for his impersonation of Knight. However, his nice words for The Miz came at the price of downplaying Knight in the process.

During the latest episode of the Kliq This podcast, the former WWE legend said, ”I understand that people really like LA Knight, but if The Miz, and you watch The Miz do The Rock, you watch him do Stone Cold (Steve Austin), you watch him do other superstars that have been in this business, it’s an impression that doesn’t touch.”

Continuing the rant, he added, ”This was spot f****g on because you’re basically impersonating an Elvis impersonator, you’re not impersonating Elvis. It was unbelievable how good it was. Miz, you were my highlight of Raw.”

However, Nash’s second shot at Knight came after a cheeky callback from the former Eli Drake.

Kevin Nash’s latest dig came after LA Knight shaded him in a recent promo

Nash has blatantly called out the originality of Knight’s gimmick, calling it a rip-off of The Rock. While Knight didn’t bite back at the very moment, he was slyly waiting for the perfect opportunity to give it back to the 64-year-old retired wrestler.

During the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Knight made fun of the ex-New World Order member’s infamous blooper from one of his WCW promos as an act of revenge.

Recalling the hilarious ‘Look at the adjective – play’ blunder by Nash, Knight leveled the veteran as a moron.

Now, with Nash repaying it again with another insult, we need to see whether the bad blood between them will ever end.
