5 possible SummerSlam opponents for The Hardyz after Scott Dawson's injury

#1 Authors of Pain

Now, this could be an exciting possibility!

This may just be the most exciting prospect of the lot. The Authors of Pain take on SAnitY the day before SummerSlam, with the prized NXT Tag Team Championships on the line.

If they were to drop the championships, it would mean that this scary tag team could make their big debut on the grand stage and upstage The Hardyz to stake their claim as dominant players, on the main roster. They certainly have the look, and while they would still be entitled a rematch on NXT, we have previously seen superstars work both brands in the past.
