New phone (VM). Should I install any OTA update before flashing the first ROM?

Again, this is a Virgin Mobile edition. Kinda confused about the whole Knox thing specifically.

If you plan on using KitKat, yes, that will make things a whole lot easier. Knox doesn't effect anything unless you are planning on sending it back to Samsung for a warranty claim... Sprint and it's subsidiaries don't care. There is a thread called Knox and You in the General section if you would like to read up on it.

My ROM: WICKED X

Thanks. I do plan to use CM11, so I'm gonna go ahead and get the OTA updates before flashing it.
