The man knows how to pull crowds, sell moves and also entertain the global audience. A fresh face like Nakamura’s is what’s needed at this point in time to succour the business and sustain the interest of the audiences (people who’ve had enough of Reigns and his reign).

In stark contrast to that, Nakamura will not be much of a success if he decides to make a career out of MMA. Primarily because he has been out of the sport for over 12 years now and he would have to go through the rigmarole again to make an impact, which again, would take years to establish.
