Up next is the co-main event of the evening. Jinder Mahal defends the WWE Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura next at SummerSlam 2017.
Shinsuke Nakamura makes his way out first. Out next is “The Modern Day Maharaja” Jinder Mahal! The match begins and Jinder begins his impressive heel act.
After good back and forth action, Jinder makes a mistake and Nakamura capitalizes with a knee to the back of the head of Jinder. However, Singh Brothers interfere, but they get laid out with Kinshasas.
Jinder capitalizes on the distraction caused and hits a Khallas on Nakamura to pin him!
Winner: Jinder Mahal (Still WWE Champion)
