Andrade managed to retain his United States Championship against Rey Mysterio on Monday Night Raw this week, and he managed to deal a bit of insult to injury after the fact. Late in the late Mysterio hit a 619 and looked poised to put the champ away with a top rople splash, only for Zelina Vega to pull Andrade out of the ring. Mysterio then tried a West Coast Pop off the apron, but Andrade countered it and Mysterio wound up hitting Vega instead. After a bit of confusion involving a referee, “El Idolo” planted Mysterio with a Hammerlock DDT to secure the win.
After the bout the champ ripped Mysterio’s mask right off his head, then gave it to Vega as a trophy. Mysterio quickly covered his head with a towel so fans in the arena couldn’t see his face.
