There continues to be discussions within WWE creative regarding the idea of having Rusev feud with Sheamus over the WWE United States Championship once he is done with his current program with Big Show.

The main idea behind the Rusev-Sheamus feud is that Rusev would defeat Sheamus for the title, and then brag about how he is the “United States Champion” to get heat based on his Russian character.
