Shinsuke Nakamura made a triumphant return to a WWE PLE, winning the US Title from LA Knight at Survivor Series.
Nakamura used the double-ring structure to his advantage, blasting Knight’s head into the metal divider between the rings with a reverse DDT before delivering the Kinshasa knee strike for the win.
The match had been fairly even up to that point.
The win makes Nakamura a three-time WWE US Champion.
