Clash of Champions 2020: 7 WWE titles that won't change hands and 2 that might

#1 Won’t change – WWE United States Championship

Apollo Crews has all the odds stacked against him

Last month at Payback, Bobby Lashley defeated Apollo Crews for the WWE United States Championship. The latter won a chance to face Lashley once again, and the two Superstars are now set to lock horns in a title rematch at Clash of Champions. As good as Crews was during his title reign, it is highly unlikely that WWE will have Lashley lose the United States title.

The latter has been very entertaining on RAW, especially since he joined forces with MVP and became a member of the Hurt Business. Together, Lashley, MVP, Shelton Benjamin, and now Cedric Alexander have been great as heels and have been absolute powerhouses on the Red brand (except in their encounters with the RETRIBUTION). To be fair, no one in WWE has managed to overcome the Superstars in the Bane-inspired masks.

Lashley should get to continue his title reign. Before he is made to drop the US title, he could probably have short feuds against the likes of Keith Lee, Ricochet, Mustafa Ali, Aleister Black, and other underutilized WWE Superstars. Moreover, it would only make sense to use his association with the Hurt Business to ensure that Lashley’s United States title reign continues on WWE RAW.
