United States Championship: Andrade "Cien" Almas
Andrade "Cien" Almas made his highly-anticipated main roster debut this past Tuesday, defeating a local jobber convincingly. With Zelina Vega by his side, the former NXT Champion already feels like a big deal. He won't be facing jobbers for long. One rivalry seems inevitable this summer - a clash with the current United States Champion, Jeff Hardy.
A month can make a massive difference. Going into WrestleMania, SmackDown's mid-card scene had been struggling for a year. With the Superstar Shakeup yielding Jeff Hardy as champion, it has a new life, and there's no one better for the newly-arrived Almas to make a splash with.
Look for El Idolo to walk out of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn with the red, white, blue, and gold on his shoulder. Let's just hope they don't make him the generic anti-American foreign heel afterwards.
