Rey Mysterio defeated Samoa Joe at tonight’s WWE Money In the Bank pay-per-view to become the new WWE United States Champion. This is Rey’s first run with the United States Title.
The quick match apparently ended in controversy as Joe’s left shoulder was not all the way down. The announcers pointed this out after the post-match replay.
WWE made the decision to immediately call the match because of the blood coming from Joe’s nose, according to PWInsider.
Joe apparently suffered a broken nose during the beginning of the match after taking the senton from Mysterio. The match ended almost immediately after and WWE still went forward with the planned post-match angle that saw Joe beat Rey down while Rey’s son Dominick watched.
