The United States Championship has once again changed hands at a house show at Madison Square Garden. Back in 2017, AJ Styles defeated Kevin Owens to capture the title. Now, Rey Mysterio has lost RAW’s mid-card belt to one of the best performers in the WWE.
Andrade has feuded on and off with the Ultimate Underdog for over a year now, with El Idolo getting the better end of their feud. Tonight was no exception, as the former NXT Champion finally won his first championship on RAW.
