#4 The United States title changed hands a whopping 9 times last year
The year 2019 was certainly an eventful one when it came to the WWE United States title. The belt changed hands a total of nine times last year. It began when Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Rusev at the pre-show of the 2019 Royal Rumble PPV to win the belt.

He didn't hold the belt for long though, and was defeated by R-Truth for the same two days later. A few weeks later on WWE SmackDown, Samoa Joe defeated R-Truth, Andrade, and Rey Mysterio in a Fatal 4-Way match to win the title.

Mysterio won the title at Money In The Bank 2019, but relinquished it back to Joe soon after, due to suffering an injury in the match, and because Joe's shoulder was up when the official had counted the pin. Ricochet won the belt at Stomping Grounds, and later lost it to AJ Styles at Extreme Rules.
Rey Mysterio won the belt by defeating Styles on an episode of RAW, and then lost it to Andrade at a WWE live event on December 26, 2019.
