WWE Smackdown Live
AJ Styles is still the United States Champion after defeating Tye Dillinger on tonight’s episode of WWE Smackdown Live.
AJ Styles reintroduced the US Open Challenge on tonight’s episode of WWE Smackdown Live, and we ended up seeing a fight just to see who would face the champion, as Dillinger and Baron Corbin fought on the ramp just to get the match.
Before the match, Baron Corbin talked about ‘squandering’ his Money In The Bank cash-in opportunity, but mentioned he would be looking to ‘cash-in’ on another one. Tye Dillinger appeared to answer Styles’ challenge, but he was met on the ramp by Corbin, who ended up getting into a shoving match. Dillinger ended up getting in the ring to get the match, but Styles quickly beat him with the Calf Crusher, and Corbin attacked after the bell.
