The United States Championship will be contested this Tuesday night on SmackDown LIVE.

After exchanging verbal blows over social media two weeks ago, the first-ever showdown between Jeff Hardy and Shinsuke Nakamura ended with The Artist getting himself disqualified and delivering a fierce post-match assault on his war torn opponent.

In the wake of the contest, both Superstars continued their war of words.

Now, by order of SmackDown General Manager Paige, the extreme titleholder will defend the U.S Title against his underhanded adversary.

Will Hardy see through Nakamura’s blistering offense and underhanded tactics? Or will The King of Strong Style close his eyes and take the star-spangled title? Find out Tuesday night at 8/7 C on SmackDown LIVE on the USA.
