– WWE has a new poll asking fans the most shocking moment on this week’s post-SummerSlam edition of SmackDown – Bobby Roode’s debut, AJ Styles retaining the WWE United States Title over Kevin Owens in a match that had two special referees, Shelton Benjamin’s return as Chad Gable’s partner, Dolph Ziggler’s bizarre message backstage or Shinsuke Nakamura defeating The Singh Brothers and fending off WWE Champion Jinder Mahal. As of this writing, 48% voted for Roode’s debut win over Aiden English while 33% went with Benjamin’s return, 9% with AJ’s main event win, 6% for Nakamura’s Handicap Match win and the rest with Ziggler’s return as a backstage interviewer.
– We noted on Monday night how Enzo Amore took shots at Big Cass following the leg injury that Cass suffered during their Brooklyn Street Fight. As seen below, Enzo continued ranting on his former tag team partner and the injury. WWE has since announces that Cass suffered a torn ACL and possibly a medial meniscus tear. He’s set to undergo surgery this week and could be out of action for around 9 months. Enzo wrote the following:
You are never defeated when you lose yo…. you are defeated when you quit! & BIH-Cass… you’ve been defeated! #SAWFt as ?? – ???? #NoBalls
