-- In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it was noted that at one point WWE had plans to have AJ Styles defend his Intercontinental title against Jeff Hardy at SummerSlam, but strangely, there has been absolutely no buildup towards that. The reason for that is because of all the rewrites in the TV scripts lately, with Vince McMahon reportedly rejecting almost every idea and one of the ideas he "tore up" was an angle to kickstart that program. PWinsider.com though had a story running yesterday suggesting that this match is still planned and the angle to make it happen was taped yesterday for the Smackdown to air later tonight so we will all find out soon enough if this is the direction they are going.
