"He Just Winning at Everything": Fans Think Female Ex-WWE Star Is Dating Ilja Dragunov After Her Latest Post

Ilja Dragunov ended a year-long injury layoff by defeating Sami Zayn to claim the United States Championship on WWE SmackDown, overcoming multiple distractions during the match.

  • On this week's WWE SmackDown, Ilja Dragunov answered GM Nick Aldis's open challenge and defeated Sami Zayn to win the United States Championship.
  • Ilja Dragunov's comeback follows a torn ACL last September that cut his momentum, with reports of 'The Mad Dragon' returning circulating widely on social media for months.
  • Attacked on his way to the ring, Dragunov faced Carmelo Hayes before the bell, while Solo Sikoa distracted Sami Zayn, enabling Dragunov’s win as MFT attacked post-match despite Rey Fenix’s intervention.
  • This win gives Dragunov his first WWE title since last spring and reshapes challengers, with The Miz showing interest and Aldis running the open challenge.
  • Amid SmackDown's post-Crown Jewel fallout, the Wyatt Sicks confronted the MFT stable, and show officials intervened to separate the combatants as the show closed.
