– This week’s SmackDown main event saw WWE United States Champion AJ Styles retain over Kevin Owens. Per the stipulation, WWE has confirmed that Owens will no longer receive a US Title shot while AJ is the champion.
However, WA.Com reader Heath Albritton sent note that there is still an advertisement going on in Monroe, Louisiana, for a WWE Live Event this coming Sunday night. It is advertising AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens for the US Title.
– As noted, former WWE NXT Champion Bobby Roode was called to the main roster on tonight’s SmackDown with a win over Aiden English. The NXT Twitter account confirmed that Roode will be working the rest of the yellow brand dates that he’s been advertised for. They congratulated him with this tweet:
Congrats to @REALBobbyRoode on his #SDLive debut … you can still see him on his advertised NXT dates! #FarewellBobby— WWE NXT (@WWENXT) August 23, 2017
Speaking of Roode, Triple H tweeted the following on Roode’s call-up:
One chapter ends and another #Glorious one begins…
