If WWE Night of Champions wasn’t already big, and it already is, it just got bigger. On the night where we crown a new King and Queen of the Ring, as well as Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena defending his title against arch-nemesis CM Punk, this week’s WWE SmackDown confirmed another title match for the event. The blowup between United States Champion Jacob Fatu and Solo Sikoa finally happened this past Friday night.

Sikoa pleaded with Fatu to join him and JC Mateo again. However, Fatu saw right through that, and he knows that Sikoa has a huge issue: he captured the United States Title at WrestleMania 41 without anyone trying to give him an advantage. Fatu’s suspicions were correct, as Mateo and Sikoa cut him down to size. If it weren’t for Jimmy Uso, who knows what could have happened to Jacob?
After that scuffle, Jacob Fatu, backstage, told everyone that at WWE Night of Champions in Riyadh, he wants Solo Sikoa, and the United States Championship will be on the line. Saturday night next week just got a lot more interesting with these two beasts colliding.
