We are back with a look at LA Knight's title win at SummerSlam.
United States Champion LA Knight makes his way to the ring.
Lou Ferrigno is in the crowd tonight
Knight wants to talk to ya. He says SummerSlam has come and gone. With all the answers one question remains. He says people asked him if it was extra sweet to beat Logan Paul in his home town. He says all he cares about is that he said call him what you want, but you will call him champ. Knight says that he has arrived. He says this title makes him a marked man but he has been a marked man since he walked onto Smackdown. He will walk in, hit it, and quit. Then he moves on to the next. Knight says he cannot stop being the US Champion with everyone yelling . . .
Santos Escobar's music interrupts and he comes out with Elektra Lopez, Humberto Carrillo, and Angel Garza.
Santos congratulates Knight. He says he means it. Santos says the crowd and Knight suck. Santos says not every day do you get someone like Knight to finally get the taste of gold. Santos says this whole LA Knight as Champion thing. He doesn't buy it. Enjoy your time in the spotlight because it is fleeting. All of your grit and glory will be nothing but an opening act to his reign. Santos says this is a fact of life. Santos says he truly deserves to be US Champion.
Knight says he didn't hear a damn word that Santos said because Tulsa said that Santos sucks. You deserve to get the brakes beaten off you again. You must be sick of that. The problem is that to get a shot against him, you have to qualify and your opponent will be out soon. You won't take the title off of him because he won't let you.
Giovanni Vinci says there are no losses. Nobody should think success ia given and he knows that it is his destiny. A man who know no limits accepts no shortcomings. He says he does everything with style. He says he will bring that same relentless style to Smackdown.
