should shinsuke nakamura become united states champion?

Right now, I see no reason why he shouldn’t become United States Champion. He reinvented himself with a shocking heel turn, and he is now arguably one of the top heels on Smackdown (it would have been Big Cass, but he got released). A run with the star-spangled belt could solidify Shinsuke’s spot in the upper reaches of the card.

Plus, there’s a lot of potential for great matches. A proper match between Nakamura and Tye Dillinger for the red, white, and blue could really be something great. I’d assume Sin Cara and Nakamura could do something great as well. But the real money is in potential showdowns with Rusev, and maybe even a returning Randy Orton. Those are money matches.

I say WWE should go for it. Let Shinsuke hold the red, white, and blue belt. What’s the worst that could happen?
