Sheamus will defend the WWE United States Championship against Damian Priest at the SummerSlam pay-per-view.
“The Archer of Infamy” challenged the champion to this bout on this week’s episode of WWE RAW. Sheamus defeated Ricochet in a non-title bout on Monday, and Priest emerged victorious in a match with John Morrison. In a promo after his win, Priest called out Sheamus and stated that he’s a bully. Once he made the challenge, Sheamus accepted, so the title match is now official.
