Bobby Roode welcomed any challenger with his United States Title up for grabs, while also calling out Randy Orton to address last week's attack.

A staredown between the two men was cut short as Jinder Mahal made his way down to the ring. All three men exchanged words before things turned aggressive. A Khallas to both Roode and Orton left Mahal standing tall.

Rumor has it WWE plans to have Randy Orton face Bobby Roode at WrestleMania 34 for the United States Title. However, injecting Jinder Mahal into the scene for now may also serve as a way to prolong a personal feud between Orton and Roode heading towards Mania.

A three-man feud for now may offer more time for either Orton or Roode to turn heel before WrestleMania season in order to spice things up.

As of now though, we should expect Jinder Mahal to stick his nose around the United States title scene before we get to see a one-on-one rivalry between The Viper and The Glorious One.
