Shinsuke Nakamura delivered a scathing promo and mocked the American Nightmare’s family. Moreover, he insulted the late Dusty Rhodes, referring to him as an ‘inbred’. Needless to say, Cody was not at all pleased by his rival’s comments. The former attacked Nakamura backstage, which scattered into a brawl at ringside.
