Samoa Joe hasn’t held the United Championship for long but he hoped his reign would continue past WrestleMania 35. Rey Mysterio stood in his way and, after suffering an injury, the legendary star wasn’t a lock to compete. But the show must go on and Mysterio challenged Joe for the championship. In less than a minute, Joe defeated Mysterio with the Coquina Clutch.
