Did It Again: Title Change Takes Place At WWE Survivor Series

And new! Titles are some of the most important aspects of any wrestling promotion as they often identify the bigger names in the promotion.

One of the more prominent WWE titles changed hands this week, with a former champion getting his belt back.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: That’s Big: WWE Has Very Lofty Goal For Elimination Chamber And It Hinges On John Cena

This weekend at WWE Survivor Series, Shinsuke Nakamura defeated LA Knight to win the United States Title. Nakamura returned to WWE television earlier in November after about seven months away, attacking Knight and jumping back into the title picture. The win makes Nakamura a three time champion and marks his first time with the title since 2019 when he held it for two days.

This is a big one. Check out the match plus more from the new champ:

Opinion: This is something that kind of came out of nowhere but it makes the most sense. Nakamura coming back after such a lengthy absence and then losing his first big match would have been a misstep and thankfully WWE didn’t go in that direction. I’m not sure where this leaves Knight, but there is a good chance that these two are not done with each other just yet.
