Following the Men's WarGames Match, Rhodes declared his entry into the 2024 Men's Royal Rumble Match. Shortly afterward, he was ambushed by Nakamura on RAW.
Fast forward to this week's episode of Monday Night RAW, Nakamura explained his reasons for attacking Rhodes. He stated that the two men experienced a similar humiliation, having failed to win the world championship at WrestleMania after winning the Royal Rumble. The 43-year-old star had previously lost to AJ Styles at WrestleMania 34.
This led to WWE announcing a singles match between The American Nightmare and The King of Strong Style for next week's RAW.
