Escobar Secures Title Shot at SmackDown After Mysterio’s Match is Called Off Due to Injury

Austin Theory may not be defending the United States Title at SummerSlam, but he will be put to the test before the major Detroit event. Theory is set to defend his U.S. Title on SmackDown next week, and his challenger has now been determined.

Santos Escobar emerged victorious from the first fatal four-way match a couple of weeks ago, securing his place in the final match. Last week, Rey Mysterio won his own fatal four-way match, setting up an intriguing final for SmackDown.

The match between Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar began with a show of sportsmanship in the form of a handshake before the two got down to business. However, the match took a turn when Santos executed a suicide dive on the outside, causing Mysterio to hit his head. The match was subsequently called off due to Mysterio’s injury.

As a result, Austin Theory will now defend his United States Title against Santos Escobar in two weeks on SmackDown. This presents a significant opportunity for Escobar, who could secure a title win after the summer’s biggest party.
