WWE SummerSlam Slim Jim Battle Royal champion LA Knight, who showcased a modified Slim Jim Nissan Z sports car earlier this year, has had it stolen. Los Angeles bespoke video shoots were the scene of the theft, which was initially suspected of being a publicity hoax.
WWE’s LA Knight Faces Unforeseen Setback as Slim Jim’s Custom Car Vanishes
According to “PRNewswire,” the car’s disappearance is not a marketing strategy. A hashtag campaign encourages people with information about the stolen vehicle to contact the Los Angeles Police Department to help retrieve it.
Ashley Spade, VP & General Manager of Snacks at Conagra Brands, which owns Slim Jim, expressed surprise and displeasure and said the firm is working with law enforcement. Spade said, “We knew we had something special with our custom car, but had no idea it would be in such demand that someone would steal it.”
LA Knight was the face of WWE’s lucrative Slim Jim deal after winning the SummerSlam Battle Royal. The highlight of his WWE-themed ads was driving the custom automobile into Rosemont, IL’s Allstate Arena before Survivor Series: War Games.
