Rey Mysterio defeated AJ Styles to win the WWE United States Championship tonight on Monday Night Raw. Mysterio won a Fatal 4-Way against Ricochet, Randy Orton, and Drew McIntyre earlier to earn the opportunity.
Here’s how it went down:
Mysterio hits a springboard moonsault that puts Styles into position. Mysterio hits a 619, but the momentum sends Styles into the referee to take him out. Anderson and Gallows run down and double-team Mysterio while the referee is down. Gallows and Anderson go for the Magic Killer, but Randy Orton runs down and takes them out. Styles misses a Phenomenal Forearm on Orton. Mysterio hits a hurricanrana into the ropes and connects with a 619! Orton RKOs Styles, and Mysterio hits a top rope splash for the win!
