- Knock Out is a Velocitronian Transformer from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family
Knock Out is a product of his environment. As a native of Velocitron, he's not only preoccupied with speed and racing, but is also fastidious about looking good while doing so. In his line of work as a weight-loss surgeon and aerodynamic specialist, he's constantly looking for physical flaws and imperfections to work his magic on... mostly on other 'bots.

Notes
- Knock Out is based on Prime Knock Out.[1]
- Mairghread Scott later clarified that Knock Out's conjunx is the IDW Generation 1 iteration of Prime Breakdown[2], likely a wink at fans who believed that Prime Knock Out's relationship with Breakdown was more than platonic.
