WWE Raw Results returned and Damian Priest joined the commentary team for this one, so chances are he’ll play a role in this in some way during or after the match.
This should be pretty good and if Jeff wins the US title match at Extreme Rules becomes a triple threat, if Sheamus wins it stays a singles match.
The match started with some good moves between Jeff and Sheamus before Sheamus hit a shoulder block.
Priest really talked Jeff up again for the second week after the WWE took heat for having him involved in the 24/7 Championship chase.
