WWE Intercontinental Champion AJ Styles came out on SmackDown to mention how there’s no one worthy to challenge him for the title at SummerSlam. Jeff Hardy appeared and mentioned how cool it’d be to see them squaring off for that title. AJ denied the proposal and rather verbally attack him. Hardy took some shots on Styles to keep him down and leave the ring.
