WWE wrestler Baron Corbin defeated Trick Williams at SummerSlam on Sunday night to win the United States Championship, marking the completion of a comeback storyline for Corbin since his recent return to the promotion. The victory ends Williams's reign as champion and continues the night's series of high-profile title changes and matches at one of WWE's biggest annual events.

Corbin returned to WWE a few weeks before SummerSlam and immediately signalled his intent to target Williams and the title. He capitalised on a moment of distraction for Williams during the bout to seize the win and reclaim the championship, which he has held previously in his career. The result was one of several notable outcomes on the SummerSlam card, held in Minneapolis, which also featured title matches involving CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Liv Morgan and Iyo Sky, among others.
