On Friday’s edition of SmackDown, Rey Mysterio captured the WWE United States Championship from Austin Theory after Theory made it impossible for Santos Escobar to compete after multiple sneak attacks.
Many fans were surprised by the title win and Fightful Select have now reported that WWE took steps to keep the title win a secret.
There were some revisions made internally to keep the Rey Mysterio title win quiet.
