One of the best gifts WWE has given the fans this Christmas was making Rusev champion. He beat Shinsuke Nakamura for the United States Championship on SmackDown. Although, he won this title twice before, this time it really felt special for him as well as for his fans.

Now, Nakamura will surely get his rematch from the Bulgarian Brute, according to the rumors, he will be getting the rematch at the Royal Rumble pay per view. Normally, secondary titles are not defended on this show due to all the superstars participating in the Royal Rumble match.

But many superstars have done double duty before at this pay-per-view, so its possible both take part in the Royal Rumble match later on. Anyways, the match could be another solid encounter between the duo, after their match on SmackDown.

Ad

The Super Athlete shouldn't lose the title after winning it just a month before, as he deserves a long title reign that can be extended until WrestleMania 35, because he was one of the most popular stars of 2018 and fans have been constantly clamouring to push him.
