One guy Triple H/Vinnie Mac shouldn't consider for the role of squash match job guy is LA Knight. He's far too talented for that sort of sh*t, and proved he was able to turn rubbish into gold during his feud opposite Bray Wyatt a few months back. He's still waiting to be rewarded for that, by the way.

A healthy chunk of change to wrestle Austin at 'Mania sounds perfect.

Nobody's saying LA would win here. Far from it. He'd stare at the lights just the same as someone like Corbin would, but there's a difference: Knight would get to look competitive and work a heat section on 'Stone Cold' before succumbing to a Stunner for the three count.

Losing to Austin isn't a problem. It's how the beaten wrestler loses and is allowed to perform before doing the honours that matters. LA is great, and he'd surely make the most of this lofty spot on the card(s) this April.
