It was announced last week that the WWE United States Championship would be defended at SummerSlam, as champion Shinsuke Nakamura will defend against the former champion Jeff Hardy.
On today’s episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, the US Title match announcement was discussed. During the discussion Dave Meltzer speculated that the match will eventually be changed to a Triple Threat Match for the belt, and that Randy Orton will be added to the match.
Regarding the potential change to the US Title Match at SummerSlam, Meltzer said:
“I expect it to be a three way. Every angle that you seen has involved Orton, so I figured it a given.”
We will keep you updated if we hear anything new regarding changes to the SummerSlam card.
