“The Charismatic Enigma” will once again take on the “The King of Strong Style” (or king of low blows. Take your pick) in a rematch for the United States championship.
It wouldn’t be surprising if Randy Orton is added to the match down the line. Orton has been a huge thorn in Hardy’s side recently and the build thus far has involved all three men.
However, for now, Jeff Hardy vs. WWE United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura has been announced for the biggest party of the summer.
