WWE Smackdown results: US Champion Zelina Vega beats Alba Fyre as Chelsea Green's plan backfires
Zelina Vega continued her strong run as the Women's United States Champion with a big win over Alba Fyre on WWE SmackDown. Despite facing plenty of chaos from Chelsea Green and her Secret Hervice, Vega stayed focused and finished the match in style.
Earlier in the night, Chelsea Green met Nick Aldis in the hallway, wearing a rainbow face mask and holding a cardboard cutout of her own face. She claimed Vega had attacked her and demanded the title be taken away. Aldis made it clear that Vega would not be stripped and told Chelsea she would get a rematch once she's cleared to compete.
Not happy with that answer, Green took matters into her own hands and somehow booked Alba Fyre in a match against Vega. Aldis agreed to make it official.

Alba Fyre started off strong, using her power to knock Vega down early. But the champion bounced back with quick strikes and a hurricanrana that sent Fyre out of the ring. Chelsea Green distracted the referee while Piper Niven tripped up Vega. Fyre followed with a superkick and took control as the show went to break.
Back from commercial, Vega fought out of a chinlock and landed a big Meteora in the corner. She went for a suplex but changed her mind and hit a jawbreaker instead. Vega then missed a moonsault, and Fyre tried to take advantage with a Swanton Bomb, but Vega kicked out at two.
The match reached its wildest point when Vega stepped outside the ring. Chelsea Green tried to hit her with the facemask, but Vega ducked, and Green accidentally hit Piper Niven. Vega got back in the ring and nailed Fyre with a Code Red to score the win.
