YEAH!
As seen during the March 7th 2025 edition of WWE Smackdown, Shinsuke Nakamura defended the United States title against former champion LA Knight.
At the end of a back and forth match, Nakamura attempted to use a steel chair. When the referee took the chair away, Nakamura used his mist but Knight ducked and the referee was blinded.
Knight was eventually able to give Nakamura a BFT onto the chair and a second referee ran down to make the three count. Knight celebrated with pyro as the show went off the air.
