Every Current Champion In WWE (And Who Should Beat Them)
6. United States Title
Champion: Solo Sikoa
Who Should Beat Him: Jimmy Uso
Pre-SummerSlam, one Jacob Fatu would've been the top pick to dethrone Solo Sikoa and send the so-called 'Tribal Chief' scurrying away with his tail between his legs. WWE booked an out for Solo in MetLife Stadium's steel cage effort though, and even one more brawl between Sikoa and Fatu could be a stretch. Also, and this is amazing considering how over Jacob is, seeing him regain the United States Title sounds pretty boring.
Enter Jimmy Uso. It's just him, uce.
You've got to feel a tad sorry for 'Big Jim'. He'll be personally thrilled and delighted for his brother, sure, but Jimmy has had to sit and watch Jey get all of these opportunities atop the card. Meanwhile, what has he got to show for the past year and change? A few nondescript matches and other miscellaneous moments? It's high time Triple H changed that and gave Jim some flowers.
A big ol' bouquet of the things. He should be the guy to end Solo's US Title reign, not Jacob. That might raise some eyebrows given how much of a WWE megastar Fatu has seemed to be since day one (-ish), but it's just a suggestion. Now, who's going to be brave enough to pitch it during the kind of creative meetings we saw on Neftlix doc series WWE Unreal?
Over to you, Michael Hayes. He seems happy to go to bat for The Usos any chance he gets, and that's fabulous from the Freebird. Seeing 'Big Jim' get some gold of his own would be a lovely gesture, and he's surely good enough to make the most of a United States Title reign in late-2025/early-2026.
