LA Knight surprisingly lost his United States Championship to Shinsuke Nakamura at Survivor Series earlier tonight. The match's outcome was among the biggest shocks of the night.

Knight was hit with a Kinshasa before the title changed hands. But this came after The Megastar literally dropped his championship while heading to the ring as part of his entrance.

The now-former United States Champion posed on the ropes with the title before accidentally dropping it to the floor. Knight had to pick the championship up before handing it to the referee.

It was an interesting botch, which happened just moments before Nakamura secured the title. The outcome came as a surprise since the Japanese star had only recently made his return, and there had only been a few weeks of build in this feud.

LA Knight won the title from Logan Paul at SummerSlam 2024. He was a fighting champion over the past few months. Meanwhile, Nakamura returned to SmackDown a few weeks ago and targeted The Megastar.

This past week on SmackDown, Nakamura spat black mist in the face of Knight, showing that he had completely changed his character upon his return to the company. The King of Strong Style was inactive on WWE TV for months before his comeback.
