Speaking of WrestleMania 31, one year ago had John Cena offing Rusev to become the new WWE United States Champion. From there, Cena's 'U.S Open Challenge' segments on Monday Night Raw provided much entertainment. In the process, they also elevated the stock of the title itself, turning it into something valuable to WWE.

The same can't be said for Kalisto's United States Title run to date. It's high time that officials actually started treating the belt seriously again, and that doesn't necessarily mean dethroning the masked man. Ryback tanked as Intercontinental Champion, so there's a good chance he'd do the same with the other secondary strap. Therefore, Kalisto should retain at WrestleMania 32.

That would be a show of faith in the Lucha Dragons member, and he really needs that from those in charge right now. The 'Big Man vs. Little Man' story he's involved in now with Ryback makes sense, but it requires that babyface win. Hopefully, Kalisto can then use the victory as a launching pad and start to be taken more seriously by those calling the shots backstage.
