– As noted, Daniel Bryan teased a possible Ring of Honor return following Cody Rhodes’ World Title win at Best in the World. Bryan posted the following, and also noted that his WWE contract expires in September 2018:
Side note, if you hold the @ringofhonor title 462 days I may have to come after you, which would be 9/28/18. Be forewarned! #FinalCountdown

Cody Rhodes recently spoke with Sports Illustrated’s Extra Mustard, and had the following to say on the pseudo-challenge issued by Bryan:
“I don’t think it was a challenge, just fun,” said Rhodes. “Daniel Bryan remains one of my friends. Final Countdown would be a welcomed tune, even as a competitor. I have always looked up to Dan. It would be major, major box office for all involved.”
– After not appearing at Saturday’s WWE live event in Vancouver due to reported “border issues”, Shinsuke Nakamura worked last night’s WWE live event in Everett, WA.
Nakamura faced WWE Champion Jinder Mahal in the main event of the evening. There was a lot of interference from the Singh brothers. Jinder worked Nakamura over for most of the match. The crowd at one point was chanting “3MB”, which got Jinder hot, however he later did his guitar taunt which actually got a pop from the crowd.
The end of the match saw Nakamura make a comeback and hit Jinder with a Kinshasa from the middle turnbuckle. Before Nakamura could hit another from the front, the Singh brothers got involved again, this time costing Nakamura who got blindsided by Jinder. Jinder then hit the Cobra Clutch slam for the pin. This is the first pinfall loss on the main roster for Shinzuke Nakamura.
After the match, Jinder and the Singh’s started to attack Nakamura, only for him to turn it around clean house. Nakamura finally hit Jinder with a Kinshasa to end the show. (Thanks to Bryan Maloney and Adrian Trilla)
