WWE Is Trying To Fix WrestleMania 41’s Second Biggest Mistake At SummerSlam
WrestleMania 41 brought the spectacle as always, but let’s be honest—there were some serious missteps that fans haven’t forgotten. While most of the spotlight has focused on the booking of the main event, there’s another glaring issue WWE is finally addressing… and it’s happening at SummerSlam.
The second biggest mistake at WrestleMania 41? Mishandling the momentum of LA Knight.
Heading into WrestleMania, LA Knight was red-hot. The crowd was behind him every week, his promos were fire, and he had all the charisma of a future main-eventer. But WWE dropped the ball—Knight was placed in a midcard match that didn’t do justice to the wave he was riding. It was a textbook example of a superstar losing steam due to creative hesitation.
But now, it looks like WWE is trying to make it right.
At SummerSlam, LA Knight is reportedly set for a major spotlight moment—one that could launch him back into title contention and finally give him the push fans have been demanding since last year. Whether it’s a marquee match, a high-profile feud, or even a surprise title opportunity, WWE seems to be aligning the pieces to reignite the “YEAH” movement in a big way.
Why the sudden shift? Simple: fan power. The WWE Universe never let go of LA Knight. Despite being underutilized post-WrestleMania, his merch still sells, his pop is loud every week, and social media is constantly buzzing about him. WWE may be late to the party, but they know they have something special—and SummerSlam is their chance to correct course.
This isn’t just about one superstar. It’s about WWE listening to its fans and finally giving someone with organic support the spotlight they deserve. We’ve seen them make similar adjustments before—just look at how they pivoted with Cody Rhodes and Sami Zayn. LA Knight could be next.
The SummerSlam card is already stacked, but the buzz around Knight is real. If WWE lets him shine and gives him a meaningful win or feud, it could be the start of something bigger—possibly even a title run by the end of the year.
Let’s hope WWE doesn’t fumble this one again.
So what do you think—will LA Knight finally get his due at SummerSlam? Is WWE really correcting WrestleMania 41’s second biggest mistake?
