How does this sound as a potential scenario for Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara:
Antonio Cesaro remains United States Championship from now until SummerSlam 2013. Heading into the event, Cesaro informs us that when he retains the US Championship at the PPV, he will head into RAW the next night as US Champion for 365 days. No one can stop him. Enter Rey Mysterio. Rey points out that the US Championship is the only title he has never held in the WWE, and he wants a shot. The two fight and Cesaro ends up eating a 619. Also in the build-up, Cesaro attacks Sin Cara and kayfabe hurts Rey's protoge (if Sin Cara isn't actually hurt at the time -- zing!)
SummerSlam has the two working a pretty hot opening match with Sin Cara at ringside. Cesaro earns control of the match, but he can't put Mysterio away. Out of desperation, Cesaro grabs the US Title and takes it into the ring. As it looks like he is about to blast Mysterio with it, Sin Cara hops up on the apron and grabs the belt from Cesaro, who is frustrated long enough to turn his back on Mysterio, allowing Rey to dropkick him from behind and set-up for the 619. Rey connects with his signature move and then comes off the top with a Frog Splash (not his usual Droppin' Da Dime splash, but an Eddie tribute). Rey gets the pin and becomes only the third man to have held every active championship in the WWE.
Rey wants to defend the US Championship against his friend and ally, so the two have a match at Night of Champions which ends when Antonio Cesaro and his selected partner, Kassius Ohno, attack Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara, causing the double disqualification. Over the Limit has Rey and Sin Cara team up to face The Masters of the Universe, Cesaro & Ohno, with the heels stealing a victory there. Hell in a Cell is next, and they maybe do Cesaro vs. Sin Cara or something like that, with Ohno & Mysterio at ringside. Rey and Ohno get into a fight outside the ring, Sin Cara flies out to help Rey, but gets attacked upon re-entering the ring and is overpowered by Cesaro and loses.
Survivor Series has Mysterio & Sin Cara on one team and Cesaro & Ohno on another in a traditional SS Elimination Match. Rey and Sin Cara have a bit of a miscommunication in this match which leads to both being eliminated. This leads to another US Championship match at the December PPV, which in my perfect world would be renamed "Starrcade," but is currently TLC. Rey retains the US Title there cleanly.
Both Rey and Sin Cara participate in the Royal Rumble Match. Sin Cara perhaps has a bit of a marathon stint in there, and a fresh Mysterio comes to the ring later in the match and eliminates his new friendly rival without too much hassle at that point. Rey is later eliminated by some heel they want to look good.
Perhaps between the Royal Rumble and the Elimination Chamber PPV, Rey defeats Sin Cara to earn a spot in an Elimination Chamber of some sorts. Rey doesn't win that, but does his thing.
The challenge is made by Sin Cara through some sort of speaking surrogate who challenges Rey to a US Title match at WrestleMania. The losses appear to be eating up Sin Cara. Rey accepts the challenge, but the match is made "Mask vs. Mask" by some sort of heel authority figure who wants to make this really personal between Rey and Sin Cara. This is where Sin Cara gets his big win, becomes the new US Champion and gets a solid mid-card babyface push with Rey Mysterio's blessing.
