The following contest,
scheduled for one fall, is for The United-
>> So, wait a minute. From behind, Angel and Berto just
ripped LA Knight out of the ring. >> Yeah, and LA Knight had to know
something was afoot with this unit. This is familiar, and they simply have
proven in the past they cannot be trusted. >> Well, this is perfectly legal,
technically, because the opening bell has not rung. [NOISE]
>> Berto and Angel doing the dirty work for Santos Escobar before this United
States Title Match even gets underway. >> Getting those licks in early,
softening up the megastar, making Santos Escobar's
job that much easier. >> Our official, Jessika Carr has got to
try to get some semblance of control, if you wanna think about
maybe calling the match off. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Angel and Berto lost Garza, tossed from ringside. [NOISE]
>> La Madrina not impressed with decision-making. She's out, too. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Elektra Lopez, who has proven invaluable to Escobar
in the past, being sent to the back. But LA Knight's still down. Wait, there is no way Knight's gonna
compete in this matchup, is there? >> He's gonna have to, or
he loses the championship. This match, when the bell rings, is on. [SOUND]
>> I gotta question this decision. And Escobar off the opening bell,
but knight out of the way. Schoolboy, shoulders down, LA Knight
almost escaped with a rapid victory. [NOISE]
>> Escobar connects with another kick and
LA Knight in all types of jeopardy. What is Escobar thinking from the top of
the barricade lining up the champion? Look out. [NOISE]
>> Double knees, right onto our announce desk. >> [APPLAUSE]
>> Looking for the BFT. Backhand by Escobar stuns the champion. And look at Santos go,
could be thinking about the phantom drive. LA Knight escapes out the back door. Superkick by Escobar. >> Instinctive move there from Escobar. Both men having each other so well
scouted, knowing exactly what to avoid. [NOISE]
>> At what point, Wade, in a matchup like this,
do you throw your strategy out the window? >> It's all about who has
the deeper playbook right now. This guy knows all my top moves,
I know his. What else can I pull out? What's he not expecting? LA Knight looking to reach
deep into his bag right now. >> [APPLAUSE] >> Big elbow by the champion. >> Escobar certainly
was not expecting that. None of us were, BFT. >> One, two, three. >> LA Knight retains. [MUSIC]
