The title change wasn’t a change of plans. Andrade was planned for the title, which is why he lost twice to Humberto Carrillo, to get Carrillo into the U.S. title chase. That was planned several weeks back but the NXT angle with A.J. Styles led to some changes and Carrillo lost steam, so they went with Mysterio. (H/T: Sportskeeda)
Humberto Carrillo has been out of action ever since Andrade took him out during the gauntlet match for the US Championship number one contender on RAW. Do you think Rey Mysterio will become the next US Champion?
