#3 Nakamura and US championship take another day off

What's going on with the US Championship? More importantly, what's going on with Shinsuke Nakamura?

When was the last time Nakamura was actually involved in a legitimate feud? He won the title from Jeff Hardy and that's about it. Even his match against Seth Rollins wasn't given any importance. It was just there.

Ever since the feud with Jeff Hardy(in which Randy Orton was extensively involved), Nakamura has been away from live television. And it's not only him it's the US Championship which is just not on the show to be defended.

These are worrying signs because it either shows that WWE has just lost interest in Nakamura and don't know what to do with him or that Nakamura has made up his mind about leaving WWE because of a lack of proper writing and is just biding his time and waiting for the contract to expire.
