Chad Gable captured his first singles gold in WWE when he defeated Penta for the Intercontinental Championship during night two of WWE SummerSlam. The men battled back-and-forth until Penta hit a big boot to Gable's jaw, and Gable ran into a backbreaker. Gable threw Penta over his head after Penta came at him fast, then went to the top. Gable countered another Mexican Destroyer on the apron into a German suplex, bouncing Penta to the floor, then took him out with a moonsault. Gable hit the flying headbutt back in the ring, but Penta kicked out at two.
