In a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, LA Knight talked about the mystery surrounding the match, but maintained the notion that he will have an advantage.

“The guy [Bray Wyatt] plays with puppets, is that a scary thing? It’s not a puppet room match, it's in the dark. If there's one thing that doesn't bother me, it's the dark. And so you're looking at what's in store for this? I don't think he knows what's in store. I don't know, I don’t think anybody really knows entirely what's in store for this. I think at some point it's going to be, at least I'm going in with the mindset it's gonna be a kick ass fight. And whether that means the lights are completely out, whether it's broad daylight, whatever it is. At the end of the day, if you ask me, just because I'm not a creature of circumstance, I'm more of a creator of circumstance. So in my mind, I'm thinking okay, lights are out, pitch black, what do I have to do to adapt to that situation? What that means is advantage LA Knight."

Elsewhere in the interview, Knight talked about getting to share the ring with The Undertaker and Bray Wyatt at Raw Is XXX. To learn more, click here.
