A WWE star suffered another humiliating loss on SmackDown tonight. He attacked his opponent, Apollo Crews, after the match.

Giovanni started in WWE alongside Ludwig Kaiser and Gunther when they formed Imperium. For years, Vinci teamed up with Kaiser. However, that changed earlier this year when Kaiser turned his back on his tag team partner and attacked him.

Vinci wasn't seen on WWE TV until vignettes of him started appearing on SmackDown. This was the beginning of his singles career, which looked promising based on the videos WWE put out on the blue brand. However, his debut was anything but impressive.

On the September 6 episode of SmackDown, Giovanni Vinci was set to compete against Apollo Crews. The 34-year-old took a while to make his entrance, and when he finally did, Crews quickly rolled him up to pick up the win in seconds.

Tonight on the blue brand, Vinci got a chance to avenge his loss. He started off the match and attacked Apollo Crews viciously. However, the latter turned the tide by rolling him up within a few minutes. After the match, Giovanni attacked Crews and hit him with a brainbuster in the ring.

It will be interesting to see whether Giovanni Vinci will be able to turn his singles career around and start picking up wins.
