Yeoooghh! Hail to the King, Shinsuke Nakamura

Shinsuke Nakamura is more than a mere performer, and far beyond a pro wrestler; He is one of the few true artists in sports entertainment. Yes, he is a great technical wrestler. Yes, he is one of the best strikers in the game today. But it's Nakamura's ability to tell a story with his wrestling that truly stands out to fans and promoters alike.

Shinsuke was ridiculously over on NXT and seemed to be just as popular when he made it to the main roster. However, an ill-advised heel turn derailed much of his precious momentum. He lost to AJ Styles at Wrestlemania 34, and then slid down the card.

True, he enjoyed a long reign as US champion, but it seems paltry for a man of his talents to have the mid-card belt. Will he sign with All elite Wrestling?

Chances of signing with All Elite Wrestling: Practically zero. Nakamura has said in recent interviews that he wants to remain with WWE and get into the 'big belt' title hunt once more. If for some reason he does not re-sign with WWE, odds are he would head back to NJPW before he signed with AEW.
