A few months ago at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, Baron Corbin won the Money in the Bank briefcase. Many fans thought that he would become a future WWE World Champion, but those same fans started to become concerned when he cashed in the briefcase and failed to win the World Title.
After his Money in the Bank run wrapped up, Corbin lost a big match to John Cena at SummerSlam, and then he entered himself into the United States Championship picture.
Corbin has been feuding with AJ Styles for weeks now, and on Sunday morning fans woke up thinking Corbin and Styles were going to face off in a one on one match, but things changed.
Tye Dillinger convinced SmackDown Live General Manager Daniel Bryan to make the US Title match a triple threat, and Dillinger got his wish.
It’s a good thing that Bryan took Dillinger’s advice, because even though Hell in a Cell isn’t over yet as of this writing, this match might have stolen the show.
The end of the match came when AJ Styles hit Tye Dillinger with the Phenomenal Forearm, but as AJ Styles was going for the pin, Baron Corbin knocked him out of the ring and pinned Dillinger to win the US Title for the first time in his career.
