LA Knight Manages Mace In WWE SmackDown Dark Match (Photo)

WWE NXT star LA Knight appeared in a dark match prior to tonight’s SmackDown in a managerial role.

LA Knight appeared in a dark segment, wearing a suit and cutting a promo before tonight's Smackdown taping. He stated saying that he was creating Knight Model Management with his first client being Mace.



Mace then defeated Erik of the Viking Raiders with a leg lariat. This was Mace’s first match on TV since the November 21 edition of SmackDown, where he competed in a Black Friday battle royal that was won by Sami Zayn.

This was more or less a tryout segment for Knight in a potential manager role.

Other recent call-ups to the main roster include Marcel Barthel (under the name Ludwig Kaiser), Raquel Gonzalez (now Raquel Rodriguez), and Tommaso Ciampa.

Ummm....hmm...WHAT?!?! LA Knight is a manager for Mace?!? I know they are testing the waters but WHAT!?! #SmackDown #WTF #WWE #DarkMatch pic.twitter.com/zgfXD4DV9d
