Damian Priest and Jeff Hardy competed in a United States Championship match on WWE RAW. Hardy was seen in a segment involving the 24/7 Championship last week. WWE decided to give Hardy a bigger match this week to calm his fans.

Priest was excited at the prospect of facing a superstar he respected for his title. Meanwhile, Sheamus wanted to see who he would face at Extreme Rules.

Both men hit a few moves from the top rope in hopes of putting each other down. A side-suplex attempt from Priest was countered by Hardy who reversed it into a splash.

The Archer of Infamy fought back and hit a spinning heel kick. The Charismatic Enigma nearly stole the win with a pin before Priest hit The Reckoning to put him away. Sheamus attacked Priest after the match.

The match was entertaining and gave The Charismatic Enigma a chance to win a top title on RAW. It was the right call to allow Damian Priest to retain the title before Extreme Rules.
