It gets me that R-Truth wins the big one and just disappears. The United States Championship has probably been the most poorly booked title in recent times and should probably just be retired already.
While the Cruiserweights got time to showcase their skills on the Kickoff show, R-Truth did not get a match at Elimination Chamber and neither did Asuka. Couldn't Truth have challenged either Rusev or Nakamura in an exhibition match just to remind people that the title still exists?

It is clear that WWE Creative does not have a storyline in place for R-Truth and are just biding their time until after Elimination Chamber to make something interesting happen. Will one of the contestants from the Elimination Chamber match be the one to challenge him next?
I would like to see Big E go after the United States Championship like Kofi Kingston is going after the WWE Title!
