Last week, there was a Fatal Fourway match to determine who would be the next man to challenge AJ Styles for the WWE United States Championship and Rey Mysterio come out on top. He would go on to defeat AJ Styles to become the WWE United States Champion.
Because Mysterio thrives when it comes to working with bigger men, I wouldn't be surprised if they throw Rowan into the mix right away. Having Rowan work with Rey Mysterio may actually be the best thing for the big man because it will bring the spotlight on him.

It is very clear that Rowan is being given a singles push at the moment and the mystery of what he's carrying to the ring every week is also a very interesting secondary storyline with the big man at this particular point. All of this could culminate in what is a very interesting feud with Rey Mysterio which eventually ends with the big man becoming the United States Champion.
It does seem clear at his point in time that AJ Styles is more focused on Randy Orton at the moment.
