During this week’s Monday Night Raw Supershow at Anaheim, California, Jack Swagger defeated an unfit Zack Ryder to become the new United States Champion. Zack Ryder had won the championship by defeating Dolph Ziggler at TLC, on December 18, 2011.
The United States Championship match between Zack Ryder and Jack Swagger was announced during last week’s show before Zack Ryder got choke slammed by Kane. This raised speculations whether Zack would be fit to defend his championship on Raw. Zack Ryder made a valiant effort but it was in vain, as he got squashed by Jack Swagger for a quick victory. You can watch the full match in this video:

Jack Swagger, who is managed by Vickie Guerrero, is a two time All American from the state of Oklahoma. This is the first US Championship victory for Jack Swagger, who is a former World Heavyweight Champion and former ECW Champion.
Now that the US title is gone, has the Ryder Revolution come to a standstill or will it overcome this minor blip? We may have to wait and see.
