List Of All WWE United States Champions
Click Here To Promote Anything On The Above PlaceHere is the full list of all WWE United States Champions.
The WWE United States Championship was originally created in 1975 as the NWA United States Heavyweight Championship. It was one of several regional championships promoted by the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). In 1985, the NWA granted exclusive rights to the championship to Jim Crockett Promotions, which was later acquired by Ted Turner and renamed World Championship Wrestling (WCW).
In 2001, WWE purchased WCW and its assets, including the United States Championship. WWE renamed the title the WCW United States Championship and defended it on the WCW brand until November 2001, when it unified the WCW United States Championship and WWF Intercontinental Championship into a single title called the Undisputed WWF Championship.
In July 2003, WWE reactivated the United States Championship as the WWE United States Championship. It has since become one of WWE's most prestigious secondary championships. The championship has been defended by some of the biggest names in WWE history, including Ric Flair, Lex Luger, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Eddie Guerrero, Booker T, John Cena, and Randy Orton.
The United States Championship is currently defended on the SmackDown brand. Logan Paul is the current champion, having defeated Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel on November 4, 2023.
