Steel Cage Championship Showdown
Trick Williams Defends United States Championship Against Baron Corbin in Steel Cage
Anonymous
Baron Corbin will challenge Trick Williams for the WWE United States Championship in a steel cage on Friday’s SmackDown in Indianapolis. General Manager Nick Aldis announced the stipulation after Corbin attacked Williams and Lil Yachty with a kendo stick, with the match expected to conclude their months-long rivalry. The episode will also feature two Money in the Bank qualifying triple-threat matches, one for the men’s field and one for the women’s field.
Key Points

The rivalry began when Baron Corbin made a surprise WWE return in July, and Corbin captured the United States Championship from Trick Williams at SummerSlam the following month before Williams later regained it.
2
Lil Yachty’s involvement followed a five-minute match against Corbin at Sunday Night’s Main Event; Yachty survived and helped create the opportunity for Williams to win back the United States Championship.
3
Trick Williams has already qualified for the men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, joining Bron Breakker, Je’Von Evans and Penta in the advertised field.
