WWE United States Championship

I did not anticipate Triple H and his heralded writing team to make a title switch.

I thought CM Punk was sitting comfortably at the top as the WWE Champion, Sami Zayn coming out of a story this past summer where he held the WWE championship for nine days, and everybody complained that Sami had one of the shortest runs as WWE Champion of the modern era.

«How could they, how could they do that? How could they do, do this for Sami Zayn? How could they treat him this way? He's deserved so much more than this.» I think everybody was complaining.

They had their minds in the right place, their hearts in the right place for Sami Zayn.

No matter what you think of Sami Zayn, Sami Zayn is fucking great.

Justice for Sami Zayn.

If he won or didn't win the WWE championship back, it would do nothing as far as my fandom towards Sami Zayn.

I'm a Sami Zayn ride or die fan.

You know, we also had Lil Yachty surviving five minutes with Baron Corbin.

Trick Williams ends up... getting that championship match with Baron Corbin, winning the United States Championship back from him.

I would have personally liked to see Trick hold the title this whole time.

This came off as, well, we've got this big event in Atlanta, so why not do a... trick title win in Atlanta.

Yes, he did.

Trick Williams has regained his custom United States title belt.

This match was fine.

I mean, the outcome was what the outcome was going to be, obviously.

They lost to Charlotte Flair and Tatum Baxley to build them up for the six-woman tag at Sunday night's main event.

Ever since JC Jane won the United States Championship, she just doesn't wrestle anymore.

And they either appear in backstage segment or short matches.

Like, yeah, they're just not treated the same as factions that include men in

I saw him wrestle a lot in TNA because TNA initially had a, uh, working relationship with, with AAA.

And we saw him at one of the Saturday night's main events, I think, uh, answering a challenge from Tripp Williams for the US championship, uh, Shout out to Trick Williams for getting his United States Championship back as well at Sunday night's main event.

So I do think La Parca retains.

Mr. Iguana's fine.

New Japan's at its best, we'll make it clear, when the championships occupy distinct spaces on the card, and I think it's important to say that they can't just simply exist as progressively less important versions of the world title, and I think that's important for all promotions, AEW, WWE.

Chelsea Green discussed this with the United States Championship, potentially using the Rumble to challenge for that title.

Aaron Wolf against Fujita gives the NEVER Openweight Championship a reason to be an open weight championship, and I, I look at this as being important.

New Japan Pro-Wrestling is still in a retooling phase.

Thanks to guys like Mike Chioda, Bradshaw, Earl Heppner, Rock was able to overcome the alliance and keep the big gold belt with Team WWF.

Then we get this quickie here, Rhino versus Tajiri for the WCW United States Championship.

Tajiri battling with injured ribs, having a relationship with Tori Wilson out of nowhere.

Rhino with killer thighs.

But then you have this one come out and you're like, man, what's the rock? And this is where rock was getting so getting uh being on fire so yeah i mean i you you could take either one but i would choose the rock one just because it's it's the rock great stuff and it went on for 15 and you had a lot of a lot of uh integral parts that came in you had tests you had the referees you had bradshaw come out you know so it's crazy i mean you you had a lot of involvement in that match

Well, then we immediately jump to this next one that just randomly was thrown in.

We get Rhino versus Tajiri for the WCW United States Championship, which this was also when Tajiri was secretly, I wouldn't say secretly, he started dating Torrey Wilson.

Torrey Wilson's still a part of the alliance.

He'll whoop that Trick all over Atlanta.

And we find out that Trick Williams... got a shot at the United States Championship and he won the United States Championship in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Miz and Kit Wilson take on the new tag team of Shinsuke Nakamura and Kiyoki.

Bell rings are underway.
