LA Knight Reacts to Rope Botch at WWE Elimination Chamber

LA Knight addressed an in-ring botch during his match at WWE Elimination Chamber 2026. Shortly after the event, Knight posted on Instagram Stories, joking that mistakes happen but emphasizing that he still “lands on his feet.”

The moment occurred while LA Knight attempted a top-rope elbow drop on Randy Orton inside the Chamber. As he transitioned from the middle rope to the top turnbuckle, he slipped and lost balance. Instead of pausing, Knight recovered immediately, landed upright, delivered a kick, and completed the sequence with a standing elbow strike. The quick adjustment kept the match flowing without interruption. On his Instagram stories, Knight reposted the moment and wrote:

“Haha it happens… yet even if I fall, I land on my feet.”

The bout itself featured multiple high-profile competitors, including Logan Paul, Cody Rhodes, Je’Von Evans, and Trick Williams. Knight remained competitive throughout before ultimately being eliminated by Paul. Despite the elimination, his performance maintained strong crowd engagement during the match.
