The United States Championship #1 Contender’s tournament will continue with semi-finals action. Those matches will include Santos Escobar vs. Bobby Lashley and Carmelo Hayes vs. Kevin Owens. The winners will face each other at a later date to determine who will be the first to challenge United States Champion Logan Paul.
