In a recent appearance on “Gorilla Position”, LA Knight shared a story about one such incident that took place during his entrance at the TNA Slammiversary pay-per-view in 2016.

LA Knight Said -

“I think it was like Slammiversary 2016 or something. It was me and Bram. I’m doing my entrance and I pop up, up on the front buckle to do this thing [raising his arms]. And as I do that, I backflip over the rope and land on my feet. Completely by accident. Completely messed it up. I don’t know what happened. I just got a little too overzealous and went… And I just sold it with the face and everything. And I’m thinking, ’S***! I’m going to be on f***ing Botchamania now.’” “And I’m like… I said, ‘I know how to fix this.’ So, at some point in the match, I cut off Bram. I sh*tcan him into the outside. And then I get on the rope, and I do it again and I backflip on purpose this time, and then sell it all big. And I’m like, ‘Now they are going to think I did it on purpose.’” (Via Gorilla Position/Ringside News)

Knight shared that at Slammiversary 2016, he accidentally backflipped over the ropes during his entrance, fearing he'd end up on "Botchamania." Knight said to cover up the mistake, he repeated the backflip later in the match, making it look intentional.

The WWE star, LA Knight recently secured his first successful title defense against Santos Escobar on the recent episode of WWE SmackDown. Later in the show, he issued an open challenge for his title in Berlin, Germany, ahead of WWE's upcoming big event, Bash in Berlin.
