LA Knight sends message to Logan Paul after WWE SmackDown
WWE Superstar LA Knight has put the current United States Champion Logan Paul on notice after Friday Night SmackDown. This was because The Maverick didn't appear on this week's blue brand show.
On the June 7, 2024, edition of SmackDown, Nick Aldis told The Megastar that Paul wasn't in the arena because he was in Los Angeles for the World Tetri Tournament. Following a verbal backstage altercation between Carmelo Hayes and Knight, the latter star defeated the former WWE NXT Champion in a singles match.
In a video package, the US Champion took shots at LA Knight for not winning a single championship in WWE. Logan Paul even refused to put his title on the line at Clash at the Castle 2024.
Taking to X/Twitter, the former Million Dollar Champion shared a video in which he mentioned that no matter how many mind games The Maverick plays, the social media star can't hide forever. Knight hinted at making another home invasion, similar to his brawl with AJ Styles outside The Phenomenal One's house ahead of WWE WrestleMania 40.
"I'm not a stranger to making house calls; I am not a stranger to going and finding what I want. Move into the work, if you will. It seems like work ain't coming here to SmackDown. The people that I want to see aren't coming here to SmackDown, and things that I want to take aren't coming here to SmackDown. So I guess I gotta go to them. So that's exactly what I'm going to do. Logan Paul, I tell you what, Tetris tournament, YouTube videos, little podcasts, whatever it is, I'll see you there!" Knight said. (0:35 - 1:01)

WWE Hall of Famer comments on rumors of LA Knight having backstage heat
Former SmackDown General Manager Teddy Long recently shared his two cents on Knight losing his momentum in the last few weeks due to backstage issues.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's The Time Machine, Long stated that The Megastar has always been ''nice and pleasant'' to him. The WWE Hall of Famer added that he was not aware of LA Knight possibly being a part of any backstage heat.
"Well, I don't know anything about the attitude. You know if he [LA Knight] has got a problem with people in the back. I have always talked to him. He has always been nice and pleasant to me. We have had great conversations, you know, and I have watched him move around, so I don't know. If he does have that kind of problem, I haven't seen it, you know, so I don't know," Long said.
