WWE United States Championship Match Made Official For WrestleMania 34

It appears that Mahal's instigation has gotten him a WWE United States Title shot.

At the WWE 'Fastlane' PPV, Randy Orton became a Grand Slam Champion when he defeated Bobby Roode to capture his first WWE United States Championship. Waiting to rain on Orton's parade was an old rival, Jinder Mahal. For weeks now, Mahal has been instigating the feud between Roode & Orton which ultimately led to their match at 'Fastlane'.
