LA Knight was known as Eli Drake in TNA, where he was the “Namer of Dummies.” He would call someone a “Dummy” in promos all the time, and it became one of his trademarks. Since his WWE run started, he hasn’t dropped the Dummy name, but it’s not impossible to picture that Dummy trend returning.
LA Knight previously revealed that Triple H saved his job in WWE. At this point, LA Knight is going strong with Money in the Bank in his sights, and he even wants to face King Charles for his crown.
While speaking to Chris Van Vliet’s Insight, LA Knight was asked about bringing back his Dummy trademark. After all, he used to pop that off all the time in TNA, but WWE fans haven’t heard it yet.
I’ve considered. Some people want it, but 90% of the people probably done even know. I don’t know, I mean if it came out organically, maybe, but I don’t wanna crowbar things. That’s the thing, I’ve never forced any lines. Now, at this point, I’ve got programmed stuff that’s in there, here, there, wherever. But, in it’s original form, it was all kinda stuff that happened. Then it’d be like, ‘oh that’s cool, let’s keep that.’ Could it come back? Maybe sprinkle it in here or there, you never know.
We will have to see if LA Knight brings back his iconic catchphrase from TNA. He earned a lot of respect and fans while working in TNA, and a lot of those people can’t wait to see what he does on the WWE main roster.
LA Knight’s promos will continue captivating WWE fans, and now they have another catchphrase to listen for. Only time will tell if the Namer of Dummies returns.
