Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Randy Orton in the main event of tonight’s WWE SmackDown in Sioux Falls to become the new #1 contender to WWE Champion Jinder Mahal.
Nakamura will get his next WWE Title shot from Jinder at the October 8th Hell In a Cell pay-per-view from the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. The match will take place inside the Cell to prevent interference from The Singh Brothers, who helped Jinder retain over Nakamura during their first encounter at SummerSlam in August.
– SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos have picked the stipulation for The New Day’s rematch from SummerSlam – a Street Fight. The match will take place on next Tuesday’s Sin City SmackDown from Las Vegas, which will also feature Naomi’s rematch from SmackDown Women’s Champion Natalya.
– Speaking of next week’s SmackDown in Vegas, WWE United States Champion AJ Styles has granted a title shot to Tye Dillinger for the show.
