This is one of the biggest reasons why the title change happened and why most title changes on RAW's post-PPV happen in the first place. We mentioned in the Preview that RAW after PPVs are usually are the most exciting ones and it proved to be true in many cases this year.

Luckily, most PPVs haven't been bad this year - if anything, it's been the complete opposite. That was the case for Survivor Series as it was a great show, with Mysterio's match against Lesnar adding to that.

WWE knows that there are going to be a lot of eyeballs on the product after PPVs as big as Survivor Series and with the brand split being a lot more defined now that the Interbrand wars are over, this was the best thing they could do.

Moreover, AJ Styles had a good reign with the title and fans would always prefer watching Rey Mysterio win the United States Championship over Humberto Carrillo, who is still very green.

Now that Mysterio won the title, there has been a lot of attention already.
