5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE Raw (1 Jun - Results & Review)

4. Knight On The (Verbal) Warpath

The reunification of the Bloodline has rubbed LA Knight a certain way, and it isn’t good.

In recent weeks, Knight has been cautioning the Usos to not fall back into their old ways alongside Roman Reigns, but Monday night, he directed his venom at Raw GM Adam Pearce, lighting into the middle-manager after the show-opening Acknowledgement Ceremony.

Knight pointed out that Pearce has been awfully deferential to Reigns recently, including making a house call to his locker room. LA asked if the GM was “feeling Ucey” and offered to get Pearce an “Honorary Uce” T-shirt and suggested they go to the merch stand to buy an “ufa laffa” necklace. He continued to rant at Pearce, noting that the GM was giving the Megastar more energy than he had ever given Roman, warning that he wasn’t going to take that from him.

Just when it looked like Pearce was going to make his case, he gestured with an index finger at Knight, who raised it above the GM’s head to acknowledge the Tribal Chief.

At this stage, Knight has to feel like he’s taking crazy pills watching the Bloodline re-form and slowly sink back into its heelish routine while everyone just tries to placate Roman. He might seem a bit delusional right now, but LA as the guy sounding the alarm after fighting against them for years is the right call, and when he’s proven right, he might be in a position to help lead the resistance.
