The United States Championship picture hasn't had an active feud on RAW per se, but that hasn't stopped it from being one of the best parts of the show. Sheamus has had a great run this year, and his United States Championship run is an extension of that.

His two primary targets on RAW have been Ricochet and Humberto Carrillo, both of whom he has defeated.

This week, however, his luck wasn't the same. He faced Ricochet, and thanks to a little help from the interfering Humberto Carrillo, the United States Champion was pinned.

This immediately spun into a Sheamus vs Carrillo match, with Ricochet at ringside. The outcome was the same, and The Celtic Warrior found himself bewildered on RAW. While it was bizarre to see him get pinned by two relative mid-carders, this is actually a great move.

It helps establish two young superstars, both of whom will be expected to challenge for the United States Championship at some point, whether it's on RAW or at Hell in a Cell 2021.
