Tbh the feud is between Drew and Punk. I don’t want Seth near that match.

Seth was the original catalyst of the story. It was his match with Punk that got screwed over by Drew injuring Punk

And now Punk cost him his title shot when he screwed Drew too at MITB. It's all connected.

Unites States Champion Logan Paul vs. LA Knight​

At SummerSlam, LA Knight will challenge Logan Paul for the United States Championship. Yeah!

Knight has been a thorn in the side of Paul for some time, even going to the titleholder's house to throw a one-man pool party.

As animosity increased during several encounters on SmackDown, Knight pinned the U.S. Champion during a Money in the Bank Triple Threat Qualifying Match after getting an assist from New York Knicks star player Jalen Brunson, resulting in a title fight being scheduled for SummerSlam.

Who will walk out of The Biggest Event of the Summer with the star-spangled championship?

I'm not 100% sold Knight wins

 

[Cwalker]

Man they gotta pull the trigger on Knight now

 

[Dale]

Honestly had that thought myself and I think it would absolutely blow if that was the case. Really doubt Logan will be working Bash in Berlin next up after SummerSlam so it would have to be October at Bad Blood and I just don't think that's feasible. Pull the trigger on Knight already.

 

[Sabretooth]

With Knight’s age he needs and should win the US title. Logan’s got another decade plus in the company.

 

[Cwalker]

Almost feel like Knight is in a similar situation to Jey Uso.

They’re both over as fuck, sell merch, but always fail to win the big match

 

[Dale]

I'm not worried about Jey because he was always going to end up back in this Bloodline story. Knight i'm not worried about yet but if this program ends without him getting the US title, then i'll be worried.

 

[Y2Jayne]

Logan is 100% taking some time off after Summerslam, Nina's about to pop.

 

[Cwalker]

I agree with your last sentence. It feels like the whole point of pointing US title on Paul was to eventually get it to Knight.

So if he doesn’t win it sometime soon then it’s

Him taking time off doesn’t necessarily equate to losing the title.

Dude barely works anyway

 

[Sabretooth]

Yeah Roman defended that shit like 4 times in 2023

 

[Y2Jayne]

It's a midcard title though, I doubt they won't put it on Knight.
