Rusev's US Championship celebrations were ruined by Shinsuke Nakamura
We all saw Rusev collide with Shinsuke Nakamura on this week's show. The two men put on a thrilling match, that culminated with Rusev becoming US Champion. It brought Nakamura's unfortunate title run to a close. As talented as he is, this title run is one best forgotten.

During the SmackDown Live tapings, Rusev came out to celebrate his win. While he was in the ring, he was interrupted by Shinsuke Nakamura. Nakamura did not seem too pleased that the title had changed hands.
Nakamura would cut Rusev's celebrations short and attack him. It is clear that while contractual rematches may no longer exist, the two men are far from done with each other at this point in time.
I wouldn't mind them clashing again to elevate the US Title picture.
