5 Potential the United States Open Challenge matches for R-Truth at WrestleMania 35
WrestleMania is just over a month away, and seemingly all of the card's top matches have been announced or are obvious, but one that has barely any direction is United States Championship[. R-Truth's win over Shinsuke Nakamura came as a big shock after a Mixed Match Challenge victory alongside Carmella, and while it's good to see WWE push different stars in spots, he's just not a credible champion in 2019.
His run has been enjoyable though, and bringing back the United States Open Challenge that John Cena had massive success with is fun, but eventually, the fairytale reign has to come to an end. That may not happen at WrestleMania, but with so many more legitimate and better competitors out there, it can't last for too long. So here are 5 options for Truth's Open Challenge opponent at WrestleMania 35.
#5. Sami Zayn
Sami Zayn has been out of action for quite some time, but now that he's recovered from his injury, it's time the WWE find a great way to re-introduce him to the WWE Universe. Zayn left us as a heel alongside Kevin Owens, but he does his best work as a babyface. While Johnny Gargano and Mustafa Ali are both just as good as Sami as an underdog, no one does it quite like The Underdog From the Underground.
R-Truth isn't a top heel at all, so this might make the chemistry of the bout a bit different if they do want Sami to be a face once again, but, he's too good a performer to not make it work. The WWE Universe expect big moments and surprises at WrestleMania, thus, hearing that incredibly catchy theme tune that we've all come to love would be huge. Also, putting Zayn back on Smackdown where he can be a top babyface finally is a win all around.
