Kalisto beat Alberto Del Rio on this past Thursday night’s episode of WWE SmackDown in a non-title match. WWE is teasing that Del Rio will be defending his U.S Title against Kalisto this Monday on RAW. WWE.com posted the following:
Thursday night on SmackDown, John Cena introduced Kalisto as U.S. Champion Alberto Del Rio’s opponent, and after The Essence of Excellence refused to put his title on the line, The Lucha Dragon scored an upset victory over the boastful League of Nations member.
Following Kalisto’s non-title win over Del Rio — perhaps the biggest accomplishment in his career thus far — is the masked marvel in line for a U.S. Title opportunity?
WWE airs RAW from New Orleans, LA at the Smoothie King Center.
Superstars who are advertised to appear at the taping include Chris Jericho, Brock Lesnar, Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Kane, Big Show, Bray Wyatt and many more.
