Triple threat US title match added to WWE Survivor Series WarGames

A match for the United States Championship has been added to Survivor Series this Saturday.

The title will be defended in a triple threat match between champion Seth Rollins, Austin Theory, and Bobby Lashley. The match was announced on Monday’s Raw.

Two weeks ago on Raw, Theory cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase, attempting to capture the United States Championship after Lashley had destroyed Rollins. However, Rollins was able to hang on, and an attack from Lashley eventually cost Theory the title.

On Monday, Theory said losing the championship match was the best thing that has happened to him as he was no longer the kid that lost two weeks ago, promising to take the title at Survivor Series. After defeating Mustafa Ali, Theory called out Lashley. The two ended up getting into a brawl, with Theory shoving Ali into Lashley backstage in the gorilla position. Ali became mad and shoved Lashley, leading Lashley to lay out Ali on the entranceway stage.

Here is the updated lineup for Survivor Series:

  • Women’s WarGames match: Bianca Belair, Asuka, Alexa Bliss, Mia Yim & TBA vs. Bayley, IYO SKY, Dakota Kai, Nikki Cross & Rhea Ripley
  • Men’s WarGames match: Roman Reigns, The Usos, Solo Sikoa, and Sami Zayn vs. Sheamus, Butch, Ridge Holland, Drew McIntyre, and Kevin Owens
  • SmackDown Women’s Championship: Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Shotzi
  • United States Championship: Seth Rollins (c) vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Austin Theory
