The United States Championship match between John Cena and Austin Theory showcased Theory's youth and athleticism against Cena's experience and veteran skills. Cena initially dominated the match, using his technical prowess to outsmart Theory. However, Theory picked up the pace and landed some impressive moves, including a blockbuster and shotgun dropkick.
Despite Theory's efforts, Cena capitalized on his opponent's inexperience and trapped him in an STF submission hold. Theory resorted to biting Cena's hand to break free, but Cena regained control. Cena attempted an Attitude Adjustment, but Theory managed to wriggle free, causing the referee to take a spill. Cena transitioned into another STF hold and forced Theory to tap, but the referee was incapacitated, and Cena let go of the hold, thinking he had won.
Taking the easy way out, WWE allowed Theory to capitalize on the situation and defeat Cena with A Town Down. While the match was solid, it was not one for the history books. Theory retained his United States Championship title with a pinfall victory over Cena.
Overall, the match deserves a grade of B.
