Six-man tag match added to WWE SummerSlam pre-show
Another match has been added to the SummerSlam pre-show.
It was announced in a video today that The Hardys would again team up with Jason Jordan against The Miz, Curtis Axel & Bo Dallas on Sunday. The New Day defending their SmackDown tag titles against The Usos is currently listed for the pre-show as well, along with Neville getting his rematch against Akira Tozawa for the Cruiserweight Championship.
The Hardys & Jordan vs. The Miztourage is also a rematch from this week’s episode of Raw. The faces won that first meeting after it was turned into a six-man tag when The Miz got disqualified in a singles match against Jordan due to Axel and Dallas’ interference.
