Baron Corbin has revealed he intends to restore the WWE United States Championship to its original appearance after capturing the title at SummerSlam Night Two.
Baron Corbin defeated Trick Williams to win the championship, ending Williams’ reign just months after the former champion unveiled a customised version of the title featuring faux fur across the backing and lining.
Appearing on the SummerSlam post-show, Corbin reflected on his championship victory, which marked his first main roster singles title since 2017. After returning to WWE in July, Corbin said he had promised he was back with a purpose and was pleased to achieve that goal within weeks of his comeback.
Baron Corbin Says He Plans To Make Changes To The US Title Very Soon
During the interview, Cathy Kelley asked the new champion how quickly he planned to remove Trick Williams’ custom design from the title belt.
“The best part about this title is Trick just had this done for himself. I think it’s pretty new, like two weeks old, and I’m gonna rip every ounce of fur off of this, and get it back to its pristine original state where it gets the respect it deserves.”
Baron Corbin’s comments suggest the customised championship will not be around for long, with the new United States Champion determined to return the belt to its traditional look following his SummerSlam triumph.
