WWE President Nick Khan has reportedly already ‘picked’ who he wants to see win the WWE Money in the Bank match this year.
According to a new report/rumor from Xero News, Khan wants to see SmackDown Superstar LA Knight take the win this July.
“Nick Khan, reportedly pushing for LA Knight - was the one who actually pushed to bring Knight to the main roster before he became Max Dupri as Nick was a big fan of Knight’s NXT work” the site claimed on its Patreon subscription service.
“Khan was one of the biggest advocates pushing for LA Knight to get a main event feud with Bray Wyatt, rather than putting him into the SmackDown World Cup tournament as he felt Knight could handle it and he would seem ‘equal’ to Bray” the site concluded.

It’s worth noting that this rumor from Xero News is just that, a rumor, as we are unable to verify whether or not the report is legitimate at this time.
This isn’t the first time that we’ve heard about LA Knight being pegged as the winner of the Men’s MITB match, as it was rumored way back in 2022.
There’s no surprise that Khan is apparently a big fan of the former NXT Superstar, as there are clearly a number of big names backstage (Triple H) that are also on board the Knight train.
