There were a lot of people wondering why WWE had Sheamus and Rusev wrestle on last night’s RAW before their United States Title Match on the WWE Network post-show.
According to F4WOnline.com, Rusev vs. Sheamus for the title was originally planned for Survivor Series. The decision was made on Monday to move the match to the WWE Network last night but the script for RAW had already been written with Sheamus vs. Tyson Kidd and Rusev vs. Zack Ryder. WWE decided to go with Rusev and Sheamus pulling double duty.
