Wrestlemania 34: The highs, the lows, and what it means for wrestling

Low: Short and simple US title match

Randy Orton was not even pinned to lose his title to new US champion, Jinder Mahal.

In another match that seemed tossed together, Randy Orton, Rusev, Bobby Roode, and Jinder Mahal put on a brief but adequate struggle for the US title.

Rusev was a late addition, mostly put into the contest due to his rising merch sales. Randy Orton and Roode both belong in the main event, so it was little surprise when Jinder Mahal captured the gold after a Kallas to Rusev.

While the match wasn't bad, it was too short to get the crowd truly invested in the outcome, and had little dramatic build-up prior to 'Mania.
