Sami Zyan returned to Smackdown last week after the Jeff Hardy & AJ Styles segment and still claims that he was the rightful Intercontinental Champion. 

Jeff Hardy won the IC Title after defeating AJ Styles and now WWE announced IC Title Match between Jeff Hardy and AJ Styles on this week Smackdown after Styles demanded rematch on last week’s SmackDown. 

After the Announcement on Twitter, Sami Zyan blasts WWE saying that it was an exhibition match and not for any fraudulent title. 

WHAT?! This is a public slap in the face. Who posted this?!? Nicky, was it you? Who even authorized this match? Why wasn’t I consulted?
I will make sure this is an exhibition match, not for any fraudulent title. THIS IS BOGUS! DO YOU HEAR ME? I’M CHOKING ON MY OWN RAGE

It seems that Sami Zyan was definitely going to interfere in this title match. WWE was planning for Triple Threat Match for Intercontinental Championship at WWE Clash of Champions and going to build that way.
