US title match added to Backlash after Raw

A new title match between the United States Champion Apollo Crews and Andrade has been made official for this Sunday’s Backlash PPV.

This week’s episode of Monday Night Raw saw the Mexican star competing against Kevin Owens and Angel Garza in a #1 contender’s triple threat match.
