Jinder Mahal def. AJ Styles

The No. 1 contenders for both the WWE and United States Titles clashed in the opening contest of SmackDown LIVE with The Singh Brothers by Jinder Mahal’s side and United States Champion Kevin Owens on commentary, keeping a keen eye on AJ Styles.

After a competitive clash, the numbers game proved to be slanted too drastically in Mahal’s favor, as The Singh Brothers distracted the referee, allowing KO to bolt from the commentary desk and nail Styles in the leg with his United States (of America) Championship. This led to Mahal connecting with The Khallas for the victory.
