Kevin Knight may have taken the Blade Runner on the chin, but he still left AEW Collision with the biggest W of the nighthes officially All Elite.
The former NJPW standout made his AEW television debut on the March 29 episode of Collision, where he squared off against Jay White. Despite a strong showing, Knight was dropped by Whites finisher, sealing the loss. But the real headline came right after the match.
Tony Schiavone dropped the bomb on commentary, declaring, Kevin Knight is All Elite. And just moments later, AEWs official social media confirmed it: Knight has signed with the company.
Jay White even added a stamp of approval post-match, telling the crowd that youll be seeing more of Kevin Knight.
Knight is far from a rookie in the game. Hes a former two-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion with KUSHIDA and has impressed fans with his explosive style and agility. Now, hes bringing all of that energy to AEWs growing roster.
So the question isnt whether Kevin Knight is ready for AEWits whos ready for him.
