LA Knight has natural charisma and he's a much better talker than Theory. Knight has a better look. Theory can work but he's very bland. It's like he has zero personality other than what the writing team feeds him. Knight seems more genuine, like the classic wrestlers that were just themselves ramped up to 11.

You can't force someone into being over. The crowd has to get behind them. WWE should start pushing LA Knight. He could be a solid upper midcard guy for a few years, and could even get younger talents like Theory over. He's being misused now, and seemingly only due to spite that he's more over than big acts the writers wanted to push like Theory and Wyatt.

he's talented in the ring. he's a lot more athletic than most think he is. plus, the charisma.

theory is great but feels almost soulless at times. it's like Vince combined DNA of past greats in some medical facility, and theory is what popped out. sounds great but he's lacking soul.

LA Knight is 40, has never had a good match, and has never cut a memorable promo despite being a promo guy. He's over in the same way Fandango was over (except less talented in ever aspect than Fandango). He's also a faggot who whined about the Max Dupri gimmick and intentionally fucked up his promos on TV to try and tank it which nearly got him fired and he was only saved because of Vince being forced out for a while. Why bother pushing him?

Theory's a better wrestler, can cut a decent promo as well, and is way younger.

I know. Neither has Theory. I assume you're conceding that point since you were just talking about all the "good" (not great) matches Theory has had.

Literal jobbers have had good matches btw. Means nothing and is a reflection of proper training and athleticism. If you want to be a top guy, you need a lot more than that.

>b-but Theory is better in ring than Knight
Yes he is. But Knight is much more interesting. He actually seems genuine and has natural charisma. That matters a lot more to crowds. Good matches are fun to watch but no one has ever gone to a wrestling event for "good" matches. Maybe for the promise of an all-time classic match, but typically what draws are characters and storylines, i.e. HEAT. Can Theory draw heat?

Theory's problem is there is absolutely nothing that sets him apart to make anyone care about him. He's young Randy Orton "at home." Cena was pretty accurate in his pre-WM burial speech of him - he should be a star "on paper" (or in *theory* teehee) but he's not. Cena said it's because he doesn't have heart but I think it's because he doesn't have soul. No not the nigger definition of being able to dance to rap or whatever; I'm talking interesting and entertaining personality traits as opposed to a generic unoriginal gimmick that takes no risks, and the selfie schtick "ain't it"
One random example off the top of my head is when he was Vince's protege - if there were vague hints of a homosexual relationship, or not necessarily even that but just something mysterious that suggested there was more to it than meets the eye, maybe people would have actually given a shit. Instead you have a character with

Bare in mind he is a heel jobber, there's no reason he should be getting good reactions but his charisma is so high people can't help but cheer.

Austin Theory comes off a forced Vince chosen one project and gets pushback because of that. Austin has the benefit of youth compared to Knight though.
