Samoa Joe won a Fatal 4-Way on tonight's WWE SmackDown Live to become the new United States Champion.
The match also featured former champion R-Truth, Rey Mysterio and Andrade. Truth issued his second US Open Challenge and that was accepted by Joe, Andrade and Mysterio. Joe pinned Andrade to win the title.
Joe is a former NXT Champion but this is his first title run on the main roster. Truth just won the title back on the January 29 SmackDown Live episode, defeating Shinsuke Nakamura.
