5 Possible opponents for Riddle as the new WWE United States Champion

Riddle became the US Champion at Elimination Chamber 2021

#4 WWE RAW Superstar Cedric Alexander can step back into the US Championship picture

One half of WWE RAW Tag Team Champions, Cedric Alexander, has become an integral part of WWE programming since joining The Hurt Business. In many ways, joining the group rescued his career as he was struggling in the 24/7 Championship picture early last year.

In 2019, Alexander was contending for the US Championship against AJ Styles. The two had some fun encounters, and it felt like that the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion could have dethroned Styles. However, his push soon fizzled out and was only revived when he won the tag titles.

Challenging Riddle for the US Championship would not only bring him back into the singles title picture, but it also makes logical sense. MVP can push him to get the US title back into the stable since Bobby Lashley has moved onto the WWE Championship scene.

It would lead to a series of compelling bouts between Riddle and Alexander on the Road to WrestleMania 37. The two stars could even clash against each other at The Show of Shows.
