Triple H has an LA Knight problem and he does not know what to do
Triple H, the creative head for WWE and the one in charge of booking the promotion's direction, may face a difficult decision at the moment regarding LA Knight.
The star has taken off at a rate that no one saw coming, getting himself over with the fans, even though his gimmick had not been favorable. Within a year, he went from breaking out the character he was given to a fan favorite who had the entire crowd chanting "Yeah" and "LA Knight" with him.
In an incredible achievement, he even got pushed to the highest levels, where he challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Although he came extremely close to defeating Roman Reigns and got much closer than anyone thought he would, he couldn't get the clinching win.
Instead, Jimmy Uso's interference left him with a loss, and suddenly without anything to do.
While he appears to have picked a feud with Grayson Waller, there's a definite lack of hype surrounding him now than before when he was battling for the top title, and this is where Triple H's biggest problem lies. Although Knight is over, it will be difficult for him to stay that way if he does not get the feuds and the matches to prove himself.
At this time, he needs a proper feud to come away from the loss against Reigns, and Waller himself is not over enough as a top heel to hand him that.
What can Triple H do to fix the LA Knight problem?
Perhaps the best feud for LA Knight now would be for a title. While it's clear that it's not happening against Roman Reigns, there's no reason he can't feud for the United States Championship against Logan Paul.
Rey Mysterio is occupied with the LWO, leaving Paul without a proper opponent. Knight and Paul could easily have a multi-month feud heading into Royal Rumble, giving them both a chance to prove themselves and keep them relevant.
If Triple H can't keep Knight in big feuds, the work put into him getting over in the last year would be wasted.
