10) Shinsuke Nakamura Retained The United States Championship
The match between Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev was eventually won by Nakamura. This came after a distraction from Aiden English, who was standing at ringside. Nakamura used a roll-up to get the 3-count on Rusev.
As a result, Nakamura is still our United States Champion.
#SDLive English costs Rusev the match and Nakamura retains!

11) Aiden English Turned On Rusev
After being hinted at earlier in the night, Aiden English attacked Rusev. We can now finally say it, Rusev Day has officially split up as a team.
I don’t know how I feel about it. I was digging them together.
Worst #RusevDay ever. #SDLive #USTitle @WWEDramaKing @RusevBUL @LanaWWE pic.twitter.com/FbLcjqnSJp

12) Andrade Almas Has SOOO MUCH Potential
Smackdown Live this week featured a match between Andrade Almas and AJ Styles. WWE gave these guys plenty of time and they delivered with a fun match. One thing was clear to me while watching the match. Almas has so much damn potential.
The guy seems like he could be World Champion in the next year.
Almas will be WWE champion in 2019 #SDLive
