Shinsuke Nakamura’s In-Ring Return Confirmed For Extreme Rules

Jeff Hardy will defend the United States Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura at Extreme Rules.

Paige made the announcement moments ago on tonight’s episode of WWE Smackdown Live. Shinsuke Nakamura is currently sidelined with a leg injury due to a dog bite, but will return in time for Extreme Rules on July 15th in Pittsburgh. This timeframe would line up with Nakamura’s recent comments where he told Nikkan Sports he’d be ready to return in about two weeks.

Nakamura was previously scheduled to challenge Hardy for the United States Championship on last week’s show, but he was pulled due to the incident with the dog at a WWE live event in Bakersfield, California.
