R-Truth was trying to be like his childhood hero John Cena. So he decided to hold a US Open Challenge. Except each time R-Truth has done this so far (which is once) he ended up with a triple threat. This time he ended up with three challengers.

Samoa Joe came out followed by Andrade and Rey Mysterio. Things were soon looking very tough for R-Truth. Needless to say, this is not what he expected at all.

This match got the crowd to a fever pitch. It included spots for everyone including Carmella and Zelina Vega. If you would like to read the entire results for SmackDown Live, you can check that out here.
