Whether WWE wants to admit it or not, LA Knight is a big deal right now. Wherever it is in the world, when Knight's music hits, the crowd goes wild. One of those curious instances where WWE won't push the Superstar because that wasn't a part of the plan, Knight has been passed on for Mr. Money in the Bank, and more recently missed the chance to challenge Austin Theory for the US Title. Odd as that might have been a compromise fans accepted instead of forcing the issue until he chases a World Title.
LA Knight's Weatherman
Knowing how much WWE likes getting attention from entities outside of the pro wrestling business, perhaps if it were shown the clip below, it would think twice about how it uses Knight. Turns out the popular Superstar's reach has become so extensive, even weathermen are imitating him. Originally shared by realmikedandrea on TikTok, the weatherman begins his forecast by saying "Let me talk to ya", the line Knight hits fans with whenever he starts a promo.
While that likely would have set off any wrestling fans watching at the time, alone it wasn't evidence that the weatherman was also a Knight fan. The parallels continue though, and not only is the meteorologist taking inspiration from Knight, all of the phrases he uses are pulled from one particular promo. The one Knight cut on Logan Paul ahead of clashing with him in the men's ladder match at Money in the Bank.
As Useless As Basketball Cleats
The weatherman goes on to say something is as useless as basketball cleats, the poster of the original video also sharing the moment Knight used the line in his promo for comparison. But wait, there's more. The weatherman also throws in a "na na", lets the news anchor know that this forecast has his name on it - Knight said the same thing about the briefcase in the promo he's pulling from - and even gets a "with everybody sayin'" in there, although no one in the studio yells "L A Knight" back at him, unfortunately.
There's even a yeah thrown in at the end of the clip for good measure, but that appears to be a little fun from whoever put the montage together as the weatherman doesn't say it with anywhere near as much fervor as Knight. Clearly a fan of Knight, and I'm sure he's happy enough people picked up on it that his forecast has started to go viral.
