Baron Corbin has marked a significant milestone in his WWE career by reclaiming the United States Championship. Recently returned to WWE, Corbin set his sights on Trick Williams and his title. During SummerSlam, Corbin seized an opportunity to regain the championship by capitalizing on Williams’ distraction.
SummerSlam Victory
Held at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Baron Corbin celebrated his win. He used a strategic approach against Williams, who had rapper Lil Yachty in his corner. Yachty, usually an advantage for Williams, inadvertently aided Corbin’s victory. An attempt to use a ‘Trick Stick’ against Corbin backfired, redirecting focus to Williams.
In a key moment, Corbin used the U.S. title as a diversion, leading to a crucial error by Yachty. When Williams and the referee were distracted, Corbin struck Williams with the belt. He followed up with his signature End of Days move to secure the pinfall and win.

This victory marks Corbin’s second reign as U.S. Champion, his first title win was in 2017. After leaving WWE in 2024, Corbin found success in the independent circuit, notably teaming with Donovan Dijak in Major League Wrestling. Their partnership yielded tag team gold until Corbin’s WWE return. His comeback culminated in a triumphant title capture at SummerSlam.
Trick Williams’ reign concludes at 105 days. He claimed the U.S. Championship at WrestleMania 42 against Sami Zayn. His recent match saw Corbin reclaim the title, adding another chapter to his illustrious WWE story.
