Was this how the Knights Of Ren were formed?
In The Last Jedi, Luke discusses what happened between him and Kylo Ren:
I can't remember his exact words, but Luke basically says that after their confrontation, Ben Solo left, taking some of Luke's students with him and killing the others.
Were these people the ones who eventually became the Knights Of Ren?
I've not read any of the novelisations or other books, so apologies if this has already been covered in those sources.
Best Answer
I don't think an actual confirmed answer exists yet. Only theory follows.
I think that Yes, those students become the Knights of Ren.
Further speculation: Having been betrayed by his Jedi Master (Luke), Kylo Ren turned to the most force-powerful "Master" he could find. Perhaps since the Jedi were then "extinct" (for all intents and purposes), it took him a while - but he eventually tracked down Snoke. Then Snoke, sensing that the dark side was presenting him with opportunity to acquire more power, advised Kylo Ren to recruit those students into serving the dark side under the title of "Knights of Ren". After slaughtering all of the remaining Jedi students they could find, the remaining knights went on to serve Snoke as his Praetorian Guard (the guys in the red outfits that get totally messed up by Kylo Ren and Rey).
