LA Knight took control of the microphone during a live segment with former WWE interviewer Kayla Braxton, leaving her to improvise and try to stay focused.
What happened during the interview?
Braxton recalled that the segment took place near the end of her WWE run and featured LA Knight doing what he does best — taking control of the microphone.
He unexpectedly added material to the segment, leaving Braxton trying to stay on track with the planned script.
Why it matters for LA Knight
Braxton admitted she could have handled the situation differently but said her reaction was based on the story being told on screen.
Since Knight's character was verbally putting her down during the segment, she didn’t feel it made sense for her character to play along.
What comes next?
Braxton left WWE in June 2024 after nearly eight years with the company, and this story serves as a reminder that when LA Knight grabs a microphone, even the script might need to tap out.
Braxton has turned her focus to acting, hosting, and independent media projects.
She shared a story behind an unscripted exchange that briefly threw her off track during a live segment, and Knight's skill on the mic was on full display.
The incident didn’t lead to any real backstage heat, with Braxton explaining that nobody was mad at her.
Instead, they just thought it was really funny, and Braxton has spoken highly of Knight's ability to think on his feet and control the microphone.
