WRESTLING star LA Knight has appeared to call Kevin Nash a moron in response to the criticism from the WWE icon.<\/p>\n

Nash has accused LA<\/span> Knight of "ripping off" of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as part of his gimmick.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

And Knight, real name Shaun Ricker, used Nash's infamous blooper to make fun of the 64-year-old.<\/p>\n

"If I was a complete moron, I\u2019d say 'let's look at that adjective,' he said on Friday's SmackDown.<\/p>\n

"But I\u2019m not a moron, so I\u2019ll say let's look at that verb!"<\/p>\n

Knight recalled Nash's "look at the adjective \u2013 play" blunder from a 1996 promo with Eric Bischoff.<\/p>\n

In the promo, the ex-New World Order member incorrectly called the word "play" an adjective instead of a verb.<\/p>\n

He told Bischoff: "This is where the big boys play, huh? Look at the adjective: play."<\/p>\n

Knight's dig came after the WWE Hall-of-Famer questioned the originality of his gimmick.<\/p>\n

"Am I the only one that sees like an absolute rip-off of The Rock to the point when he cut the promo on f***ing Logan Paul<\/span> or whatever the f**k his name is?" Nash said on the Kliq This podcast.<\/p>\n
