The conversation then shifted to WrestleMania 40. Cole reminded Rhodes of the memorable moment when he finished his story by defeating Roman Reigns and was lifted onto the shoulders of several WWE Superstars. He noted that everyone who celebrated with The American Nightmare that night has since stabbed him in the back. Rhodes acknowledged the pattern, mentioning Sami Zayn, John Cena, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton.
Interestingly, LA Knight was not mentioned. That omission has caught the attention of fans, particularly after one fan pointed out on social media that Knight is seemingly the only notable superstar from that WrestleMania 40 celebration who has not turned against Rhodes. Could WWE have accidentally revealed the next betrayal?
There is, of course, no confirmation that The Megastar is being positioned to turn heel. The omission could simply be a consequence of the conversation focusing on Cody Rhodes’ most significant recent betrayals. However, the company has increasingly made the history of Rhodes’ WrestleMania 40 celebration relevant to his current character arc.
LA Knight turning on Rhodes would certainly provide a major twist. The Megastar has established himself as one of WWE’s most popular stars. Thus, a betrayal of The American Nightmare could instantly create a high-profile feud between two established babyfaces. Also, it would give Knight a completely different motivation if the company eventually decides to take his character in a darker direction.
For now, though, this remains speculation rather than a confirmed WWE storyline.
However, what makes the theory interesting is the specific omission during Michael Cole’s interview. WWE went out of its way to highlight Cody Rhodes’ WrestleMania 40 allies and their eventual betrayals. Yet LA Knight’s name was absent from the discussion.
If that was intentional, WWE may have quietly left the door open for The Megastar to become the next man to stab Cody Rhodes in the back. And if Knight eventually does it, fans may look back at that SmackDown interview as the moment the company accidentally gave away the twist.
LA Knight potentially turning heel on Cody Rhodes could be a strategic move
The timing could become particularly interesting if LA Knight fails to capture the World Heavyweight Championship from Roman Reigns. With Cody Rhodes currently dealing with his own problems and questioning whether his uncompromising approach has been the right one, Knight could potentially become another person who believes The American Nightmare has had things too easy.
A heel turn could also be framed around jealousy or frustration. The Megastar has spent years fighting to establish himself as one of WWE’s biggest stars. Meanwhile, Rhodes has reached the top of the company and completed his story at WrestleMania.
Thus, if LA Knight eventually decides that playing by the rules has not gotten him what he wants, attacking The American Nightmare could represent a dramatic change. However, this is just speculation.
