Rey Mysterio Relinquishes WWE United States Title To Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe is once again United States Champion.

Rey Mysterio was a man of his word on WWE Raw, officially relinquishing the WWE United States Title, handing it back to Samoa Joe. Mysterio defeated Joe at WWE Money in the Bank but Joe's shoulders were not down as the ref counted three. After the bout, Joe attacked Mysterio, injuring his shoulder in the process. Due to the injury, Mysterio will be sidelined for the foreseeable future and thus had to give up the US strap.
