The WWE United States Championship match has all the ingredients for a main-event, show stealing match. With Shane McMahon in the middle of everything, Styles vs. Owens should be an excellent contest of athleticism, drama and technicality. We know what to expect in the ring between the two men, but what happens when you bring Shane McMahon in? Special Referees at SummerSlam, or any night really, rarely call the match right down the middle. SO, how do they book this match?

I would love WWE to have these guys go 25 minutes, with Shane McMahon ultimately costing Kevin Owens the championship. I feel that both men will accidentally strike Shane McMahon and he will retaliate and only strike Kevin Owens. This leads to AJ Styles getting the upper hand, retaining the championship and Shane McMahon planting the seeds even further in the dirt for a Owens vs. Shane feud. With the WWE Network pumping out so many Pay-Per-Views, Shane and Owens would be a main event worthy match at Hell in a Cell or Survivor Series. Either way, this match will be so damn good.
