🔵 MAIN EVENT: Gunther (c) vs. LA Knight - United States Title Match: 17min*
Gunther strikes fear into most around SmackDown as he closes in on a 210-Day reign as United States Champion, but LA Knight is built different than the rest. The megastar had proclaimed he wanted to “chop the block off” Gunther’s “dad bod,” and that attitude had him rolling early.
LA Knight nearly secured the pinfall after a crushing elbow drop and extreme superplex off the top rope to the leader of Imperium. The confident Superstar put in plenty of effort to ward off Gunther’s chops, but it was only a matter of time before The Ring General won out with his strength.
Gunther cleaned LA Knight clear off the top rope with a clothesline, and a thunderous splash nearly drove his opponent right through the mat. Imperium’s leader righted a lot of the earlier wrongs with a Powerbomb to seal the win but it still was not enough to put down LA Knight.
The match would only end when Monday Night Raw's Karrion Kross invaded SmackDown to lay waste to both opponents and hold the US Title up high. It seems Karrion Kross is far from done with LA Knight and Gunther as long as he has yet to have a shot at the title he has been chasing for months!
