This week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Live was a loaded show, as it featured not only the semi-finals for the US Title tournament, but also the finals as well.
Bobby Roode managed to defeat Jinder Mahal in the main event of SmackDown Live, and he won the United States Championship for the first time in his career.
But the fun didn’t stop after SmackDown Live went off the air, as the first episode of Mixed Match Challenge aired on Facebook Watch, and then the stars of the blue brand had a little fun.
205 Live was taped before SmackDown this week due to the introduction of Mixed Match Challenge, so after the show two dark matches took place.
The Usos, Rusev Day, The New Day and Shelton Benjamin and Chad Gable all competed in a tag team match.
Then the real fun began when the KFC Rumble took place to decide who will be the next Colonel Sanders.
The KFC Rumble came down to AJ Styles and Rusev, and Styles picked up a big win when he Rusev with the Stone Cold Stunner.
Rusev did his best to sell it just as good as The Rock used to, and he came pretty close. You can check out the excellent elimination below.
