PW Boards United States Championship Tournament

Necro

JBL and MVP.

Furious-Red

JBL MVP

Omackeral

JBL gets a Rude Awakening while Curt Henning finds out he may be perfect, but he's not the MVP on this occasion.

The Miz

AWESOME!





vs



Lance Storm

''If I could be serious for a minute...''

Jeff Jarrett

The Chosen One






vs




Big Van Vader

The Mastadon

Blue_Dabadee

The Miz and Vader

Necro

Ditto. Miz and Vader.

Griever931

Lance Storm and Vader

Moneymaker

Storm, people who haven't seen his run should. He was tremendous with the US title.

Jarrett in the other round. The feud with DDP alone is reason enough.

ShagNastii

Lance and Jeff.

Zemuppet

Storm and Mr Vader

Omackeral

Some great tussles there but it's the beast from the Rockies and the man from Calgary,Alberta,Canada that prevail. Another Canadian looks to join him in the 3rd round as we go triple threat for the final place. Ready? Fight!

Bret Hart

The Excellence of Execution







vs



Tully Blanchard

The Brainbusting Horseman








vs




Ricky Steamboat

The Dragon

Griever931

Bret Hart.

Zemuppet

Steamboat

Moneymaker

Steamboat. Bret was more about the IC title.

Necro

Steamboat. Completely agree with MoneyMaker.

Angron

Yeah, Ricky gets my vote too.

Omackeral

We're hitting the business end of the tournament now as we seek to crown the best ever United States champion in history. Owing to an odd amount of participants, there will be one tripe threat encounter in this round. Who will be the unlucky trio to have their odds seriously reduced? We shall see. At this stage, I will ask that you include a reason for your selection and that first wrestler to attain four votes will advance to the quarter final. Let's get down to it.

Ricky Steamboat

The Dragon







vs



Dolph Ziggler

The Show Off

Angron

Ziggler gets my vote here. Generally, I remember him better. Ricky I remember most for his IC match with Savage, not as much with the US title.

Necro

I'm going to go for Ziggler too. Don't recall Steamboats reign tbh and enjoyed Ziggler's.

Omackeral

Think I'd go with Mr Ziggles too because Steamy is a bit before my time to be honest.

gerrybbadd

Mr Ziggles for me too. Sorry Rocky "The Iguana" Smokeship

Omackeral

Ricky runs out of steam and the show is off for the Dragon. Our next bout features two brash loud mouths. Who's walk will match their talk? Please remember to leave a reason to validate your vote.

Roddy Piper

Hotrod







vs



Montel Vontavious Porter

Mr. 305

Moneymaker

MVP, as i've said previously he had a great reign and I really thought he was going places. The matches with Benoit were really good and the program with Matt Hardy was good too. Ball dropped big time by WWE.

Piper I don't even remember having a reign. I remember his IC runs, nothing with the US title.

Necro

Yup, MVP for me too. Had some good matches with Matt Hardy if I recall correctly.

ShagNastii

Definitely MVP. I'd easily argue he is one of the best to hold the belt post WCW era.

Griever931

I'll go with MVP, I am more familiar with his reign with the US title.

Omackeral

MVP cools off the Hotrod with yet another 3rd Round whitewash. Will the next bout be as one sided? Let's find out....

John Cena

The Doctor of Thuganomics






vs



Cesaro

The Swiss Superman

Necro

Cena. While I'd prefer Cesaro personally, Cena's time with the US Title was part of what launched him into the stratosphere. He was white hot at the time, winning the title at WM against Big Show, and the best of five series with Booker T was excellent too.

ShagNastii

Yep Cena. It is amazing looking back to where the biggest star of the last decade came from.

Moneymaker

Cesaro had a good run but Cena was launched after winning the US title. Just watch the match with Big Show at WM20 and the way the crowd reacted to him.

He held the title a long time and had lots of good matches.
