Shinsuke Nakamura is just days away from taking on AJ Styles at Money in the Bank in a Last Man Standing match for the WWE Championship. However, the King of Strong Style will have his work cut out for him later today when he takes on current United States Champion Jeff Hardy in the SmackDown Live main event. This will make the first time these two have clashed in a WWE ring!
These two have actually been wrestling each other at live events (Styles took the weekend off) and WWE must be happy with the work they've been doing to book a match like this on television.
Due to some recent injury issues, Hardy won't be defending his title at Money in the Bank but it's definitely good to see him back in action. With any luck, we'll see him enter a feud of some sort after the Money in the Bank PPV but chances are that isn't going to be against Nakamura because it's widely thought that he'll finally beat The Phenomenal One for the WWE Championship on Sunday.
