Shinsuke Nakamura Gets Former Theme Back, Beats Jey Uso

Tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown opened with a big match between Shinsuke Nakamura and Jey Uso. After taunting Nakamura, Uso was unable to come away with the win, as the King of Strong Style returned to his former theme music and made a big statement in a win.

Uso came out to start the night and began taunting Nakamura, saying that he and Roman Reigns allowed him to leave last week’s episode without much injury. It was then that Nakamura made his way out, with his old theme song – titled “The Rising Sun” – seemingly back. After delivering a big kick to the head of Uso, the match was underway, and the two seemed evenly matched until late in the contest.

Towards the end of the match, with Cesaro now joining Nakamura at ringside, Uso nearly lost after Nakamura rolled him up and propped his feet up on the ropes. After arguing with the referee for nearly giving away the match, Nakamura rolled Uso up once again, and proceeded to hit the Kinshasha on him for the victory.
