On the latest episode of Keeping It 100, Konnan discussed a wide range of topics.
During it, the former WCW/TNA wrestler talked about Kevin Nash ripping LA Knight and calling him a ripoff of The Rock. Konnan thinks Knight took inspiration from him.
“We had L.A. Knight on the show and I asked him about that,” said Konnan. “I said, ‘Hey your cadence is a lot like The Rock’s.’ And he goes, ‘Yeah, I know.’ He’s not denying it, right? [He’s] paying homage to the greatest to have ever done it on the mic, which I get. The first time I saw him in Impact, I [said] this guy is kind of a ripoff of The Rock. That is the first thing that I thought when I saw him. But then I kept seeing him. The Rock never said, ‘Yeah!’ Or ‘Dummy!’ He’s inspired by The Rock, [who] hasn’t been in wrestling on a consistent basis for 25 years. What’s the big deal? I see nothing wrong with what he’s doing.”
