Sunday night at Hell in a Cell, Rusev Day received an opportunity to become SmackDown Tag Team Champions, but they walked away empty handed when The New Day retained their titles. Rusev will be getting another shot at championship gold this week on SmackDown Live, as General Manager Paige has announced that Shinsuke Nakamura will be defended the United States Championship against Rusev on Tuesday.
Last night at #HIAC was absolutely amazing but I know one #SDLive title wasn’t represented…SO @ShinsukeN will defend his #USTitle tomorrow night … and it just so happens to be on #RusevDay!
