New WWE Stable Coming As NXT's LA Knight Manages MACE In SmackDown Dark Match

Current NXT star LA Knight appeared in a dark match alongside MACE after last night's episode of Friday Night SmackDown on FOX.

Instead of tag teaming with the former RETRIBUTION face, however, the one-time Eli Drake donned a suit and cut a pre-match promo before MACE would ultimately conquer The Viking Raiders' Erik via leaping leg lariat. During said spell on the mic, Knight would announce that he was kicking off the Knight Model Management group, with his first official client being none other than MACE himself.

Looking every bit like the new client of this agent-like character, MACE was seen kitted out in a blazer and Air Jordans.

At this moment, it's not known whether this tryout for the Knight Model Management unit is set to become a legitimate stable on the main roster. But it's evident that someone in the back very much sees a future for Knight as a mouthpiece to some of the bigger talents on the roster who lack his excellent verbal skills.

If Knight were to be called up in the coming weeks, he'd join the likes of Gunther, Raquel Rodriguez, Tommaso Ciampa, and Butch as yet another NXT 2.0 talent arriving on the Raw or SmackDown scene in recent times.
