4 Ups & 2 Downs From WWE SmackDown (9 Aug - Results & Review)

3. Fine Match And New US Contender!

LA Knight's swagger now he has main roster gold over his shoulder feels right. It's justified confidence, and brings LA closer to being a made man in WWE. He really, really needed that United States Title win over Logan Paul at SummerSlam. Now, Knight's next hurdle is having a reign to remember.

Santos Escobar got in LA's face then beat Andrade to become the new number one contender for that secondary strap. The match clicked, and is actually one WWE should come back to in the future. It was that good. Santos winning and getting the crack at Knight is interesting - it's hard to complain when creative is finally doing something with Legado del Fantasma again.

The finish, complete with Carmelo Hayes costing Andrade and Escobar hooking the tights on the pin, could see 'El Idolo' argue that he was robbed. If so, then Nick Aldis might well go for a three-way at Bash In Berlin instead of Knight vs. Santos one-on-one.

Either match sounds fine to this guy.
