The AWA Superstars United States Championship was a secondary championship in the AWA Superstars of Wrestling promotion, now Wrestling Superstars Live.
The AWA Superstars United States Championship was split from the Zero1-Max United States Openweight Championship after Pro Wrestling Zero1 left AWA Superstars of Wrestling in December 2007. AWA Superstars of Wrestling pulled current champion Ricky Landell from Zero1 and awarded him the championship.
On March 29, 2008, reigning Ricky Landell defeated Keith Walker for the WSL Fighting World Championship, at which point the AWA Superstars of Wrestling United States title was abandoned.

Famous quotes containing the words wrestling, united and/or states:
“We laugh at him who steps out of his room at the very moment when the sun steps out, and says: “I will the sun to rise”; and at him who cannot stop the wheel, and says: “I will it to roll”; and at him who is taken down in a wrestling match, and says: “I lie here, but I will that I lie here!” And yet, all laughter aside, do we ever do anything other than one of these three things when we use the expression, “I will”?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“The United Nations cannot do anything, and never could; it is not an animate entity or agent. It is a place, a stage, a forum and a shrine ... a place to which powerful people can repair when they are fearful about the course on which their own rhetoric seems to be propelling them.”
—Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)
“So the brother in black offers to these United States the source of courage that endures, and laughter.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
