Kevin Knight

Sean Ross Sapp spoke with Kevin Knight ahead of AEW All In this weekend.

He talked about how nice it felt that every company was at least taking a look at him during free agency, and said that he really wanted to explore his options. In February he had talks with Tony Khan and Rocky Romero together, and he noted that Rocky Romero brought him in to NJPW, so it's a person he trusts. He was very happy that a unique deal came together that allowed him a dual contract, and noted Konosuke Takeshita was one of the first to do it.

He was very happy to team with Speedball Mike Bailey, and spoke about their history together as opponents. He's proud of being given the ball despite the unfortunate circumstances surrounding Switchblade Jay White's injury, and wants to make the most of it. He said that his former partner KUSHIDA taught him a lot outside the ring about the wrestling business.

Knight spoke of his start in NJPW, and how unusual it was so early in his career. He also wasn't sure what was actually working since they were on an empty sound stage during the pandemic, but said those opportunities helped him grow. He also spoke about Gabe Kidd saying that he wanted to fight him, and said he'd welcome that.
