United States Championship (New-WWE)

The United States Championship is a second-tier championship on the Smackdown Brand. It debuted as part of Smackdown, where it was defended until Chris Jericho moved to the Raw brand and brought the title with him during his reign. It remained there until the Season 6 draft, which resulted in champion Justin Gabriel being drafted to Smackdown, bringing it back to Smackdown. The first United States Champion in the CAW adaptation of New-WWE was Ted DiBiase. The current champion is Zack Ryder, who is in his first reign as champion. Only El Jefe has the longest title reign, while Shawn Dynasty has the shortest reign. Jefe is also one of the most heaviest champions to hold the title, while Connor Wine is the lightest champion.
