Baron Corbin completed his remarkable WWE comeback by defeating Trick Williams for the United States Championship at SummerSlam 2026.
The championship match took place during the second night of SummerSlam and marked Corbin’s first major opportunity since returning to WWE after leaving the company in 2024.
Corbin immediately targeted Williams upon his return and made it clear that he wanted the United States Championship. His attack on Williams and Carmelo Hayes quickly placed him on a collision course with the champion.
The rivalry escalated when Corbin struck again after an episode of SmackDown went off the air. Williams responded by challenging the returning Lone Wolf to a championship match at SummerSlam.
Lil Yachty introduced Williams before the match, but his presence did not distract Corbin. The former United States Champion controlled much of the early action and kept constant pressure on Williams.
Yachty eventually became involved by helping Williams with a kendo stick. The interference allowed the champion to regain control and punish Corbin.
Williams later connected with a Book End but only secured a near fall. The match continued as both competitors fought to leave SummerSlam with the championship.
The chaos eventually resulted in Yachty crashing through a table. Corbin then struck Williams in the face with the United States Championship while the referee was unable to stop him.
Corbin followed the title shot with End of Days and pinned Williams to win the match.
The victory gave Corbin the United States Championship in his first major match since returning to WWE and ended Williams’ reign at SummerSlam.
After spending nearly two years away from the company, the Lone Wolf has returned to WWE and immediately reclaimed championship gold.
