WWE has announced a big match for this week’s episode of SmackDown Live.
Stop us if you’ve seen this one before, but WWE Champion AJ Styles will face Shinsuke Nakamura in the show’s non-title main event. This match marks Nakamura’s first bout since being bitten in the leg by a police dog two weeks ago before a live event.
Styles and Nakamura have wrestled each other quite a bit over the past few months. They have worked together at Money in the Bank, the Greatest Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia, and WrestleMania 34.
Styles is defending his WWE Championship against Rusev while Nakamura is challenging Jeff Hardy for the United States Title at this Sunday’s Extreme Rules pay-per-view event.
As of this writing, Styles has been WWE Champion for 243 days.
What are your thoughts on WWE booking this match again?
