3 Reasons why the United States Title challenger will be decided via a 20-Man Battle Royal Match at Crown Jewel

#2 To lift the prestige of the US Championship

The United States Championship is one of the most prestigious titles in WWE and carries with it a rich history. The US Title is the second oldest active belt in the company, and has been held by numerous legendary Superstars. After the Universal Championship, the US Title is certainly the most significant singles title on the Red brand.

The US Championship's stature was raised drastically after John Cena won it a few years ago. The title started to headline big pay-per-views, as Cena defended the belt frequently. He introduced the United States Championship Open Challenge, which opened the door to new challengers and made the belt even more relevant.

AJ Styles has never held an open challenge, but the 20-Man Battle Royal could be a way to make the United States Championship relevant once again. At Royal Rumble, thirty Superstars contest to earn a ticket to challenge either the WWE Champion or the Universal Champion at WrestleMania. Similarly, a 20-Man Battle Royal match is a brilliant way to determine the number one contender to Styles' championship at Crown Jewel. The Battle Royal will give Styles a deserving opponent, and it will certainly elevate the stature of United States Championship.
