Maybe WWE will try to squeeze another United States Title match out of Rusev. It's possible, however he and Roman Reigns have fought extensively over the past while. It's time for someone else to get a shot at the belt, and it's imperative that a strong villain is cast against Reigns.

Keeping his momentum rolling, Roman overcomes Luke Gallows in a singles match. Afterwards, he is beaten down by Gallows and Karl Anderson, who are eager to prove a point after being unable to wrestle the Raw Tag-Team Titles from The New Day. Watching backstage, this gives Chris Jericho a grand idea.

Marching towards Mick Foley's office, Y2J bursts in and demands that he be next in line for a crack at the United States Title. Foley would be naturally frosty towards Jericho's interruption, pointing out that his peer shouldn't be too cocky about his chances of beating Reigns just because he was hammered by two men.

Undeterred, Jericho presses the authority figure on the title match. In a bid to rid himself of the Canadian, Foley relents.
