Per the orders of SmackDown General Manager Paige:
As General Manger of #SDLive, it’s my responsibility to make matches that you want to SEE ... so, I’m making it official. @JeffHardyBrand will defend the #USTitle against @ShinsukeN THIS Tuesday.

Shinsuke Nakamura lost his final match against WWE Champion AJ Styles at Money in the Bank, leaving him outside the main event scene for now. But he’s still in the title picture, it’s just for a lesser title, as he’ll get his shot at Jeff Hardy and the United States belt.
This should be fun!
