LA Knight has ascended to the next level on the SmackDown roster ever since he dethroned Logan Paul at WWE SummerSlam 2024 to capture his first singles title, the prestigious United States Championship.
The Megastar was challenged to put his title on the line by Santos Escobar, and on the August 23 edition of SmackDown, both men squared off with the star-spangled prize on the line.
Following a hard-fought match, it was LA Knight who emerged victorious over Escobar after the field was levelled up with his Legado Del Fantasma members being ejected from ringside by the official.
Later that night, in a backstage interview with Byron Saxton, LA Knight reflected on his first title defence. He then shifted his attention to WWE’s upcoming PLE, Bash in Berlin and threw out an open challenge for the event to anyone in the locker room who wanted a shot at his United States Championship.
With the challenge laid out and Bash in Berlin only a week away, we will have to wait and see who will answer LA Knight’s call for a title match in Berlin, Germany.
