Drew McIntyre and LA Knight fought each other last week to determine the number one contender for the United States Championship at WWE Backlash St. Louis, held by one Jacob Fatu, who won at WWE WrestleMania 41. Unfortunately, due to interference from Solo Sikoa and eventually Damian Priest, which led to a disqualification, McIntyre won the contest.
Unfortunately, Fatu and McIntyre will not be having that one-on-one match. Due to another interference from Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu in the match against LA Knight and Damian Priest this week on WWE SmackDown, General Manager Nick Aldis has had enough.
Backstage, Aldis let Fatu and Sikoa know that he will be defending the U.S. Title not against one, not two, but three opponents in the form of LA Knight, Damian Priest, and Drew McIntyre. Most would think that Fatu would be livid. However, the “Samoan Werewolf” welcomed the challenge, saying that it didn’t matter who he had to go through; he would remain the United States champion.
What do you think of this colossal war set to happen at WWE Backlash St. Louis?
