This week’s episode of SmackDown Live was a loaded show, and it featured two big championship matches. The Usos put the SmackDown Tag Team Titles on the line against Chad Gable and Shelton Benjamin, and even though Gable and Benjamin did win the match, the titles didn’t change hands because they won via count out.
However, SmackDown Live did feature a huge title change, as AJ Styles challenged Jinder Mahal for the WWE Championship in the main event of the show, and in the end it was Styles who walked out with the gold.
Styles and Mahal wrestled a match with several false finishes in the main event, but when it was all said and done AJ picked up the victory after he hit Mahal with the Phenomenal Forearm.
Styles is now a two time WWE Champion.
AJ Styles didn’t just win the WWE Championship on SmackDown Live, he also made history. WWE confirmed on Tuesday that AJ’s title win marked the first time that the WWE Championship changed hands outside of North America.
Jinder Mahal was originally set to face off against Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series on November 19, but it was confirmed on SmackDown Live that we’re going to be seeing The Phenomenal One vs. The Beast at the event.
