5 things WWE subtly told us on RAW (July 1st, 2019)

#1 AJ Styles will win the United States title at Extreme Rules

AJ Styles technically won the United States Championship on RAW when he pinned Ricochet following a Phenomenal Forearm, but it was evident that Ricochet had his foot under the ropes.

While Styles was declared the new champion, another referee came in and reversed the decision. Restarting the match, Ricochet would pick up a quick and sneaky win over The Phenomenal One. While it seemed like there was going to be a show of respect, AJ Styles instead attacked him and got Gallows & Anderson to do the same, turning heel in the process.

We fully expect the match to be announced for Extreme Rules and we also fully expect AJ Styles to win the title now that he's a new heel again. We even expect this feud to go on till SummerSlam or a little after that.
