Shinsuke Nakamura had a dream debut in WWE. He is at present the most valuable asset for the company. Ever since he stepped foot in SmackDown, he has reached heights many superstars aspire to reach throughout their career. Recently he won the 30 man Royal Rumble 2018 match and is scheduled to face the WWE Champion at WrestleMania for the title.

However, he has a lot to achieve still and is yet to scale new heights for himself. Though he has faced some great names in the WWE roster, there are still loads of wrestler in the current locker room against whom he needs to make his reputation.

Here are five such superstars Shinsuke is yet to face. If he goes on to win against them, he will forever be remembered as one of the best to have ever stepped foot inside the ring.


#5 Shinsuke vs The Big Show

The Big Show is a veteran who has been the most dominant force in World Wrestling Entertainment since the 90's. For over two decades, he has strengthened his position in pro wrestling by competing against some of the greatest wrestlers in the world in some classic matches ever in WWE history. He has had some of the biggest rivalries and won loads of championship in sports entertainment. However, among the new breed of superstars, he is yet to face Shinsuke Nakamura.

Similarly, Shinsuke has also made a reputation within a short span of time for himself as a master of various technically innovative shots. He is climbing the ladder quickly to the top of the industry. But he has not yet faced the 'giant'. If he competes and goes on to defeat the Big Show in a one-on-one match, he can seal his position at the top.

#4 Shinsuke Nakamura vs AJ Styles

Shinsuke vs AJ will be a classic battle

Even though Shinsuke and AJ Styles have fought previously in other pro-wrestling promotional matches, in WWE they never had a competition against each other.

AJ Styles is the current WWE Champion and Nakamura won the 2018 Royal Rumble. Shinsuke is scheduled to face the WWE Champion at WrestleMania 34. If AJ Styles can defend and retain his title till then, they both will be facing off each other in the 'grandest stage of them all' in WWE- at WrestleMania.

This will be one hell of a match as both these superstars have a tremendous fan following and both will go to any extent to establish the supremacy of one over another. Whoever wins this match will be the ultimate superstar to look out for in SmackDown Live.

We hope this match happens as soon as possible.

#3Shinsuke Nakamura vs Sheamus

Sheamus has won loads of Championship and several other classic matches, tournaments, awards and has achieved tremendous accomplishments in World Wrestling Entertainment. He is also the first ever Irish born WWE Champion. He has headlined several pay-per-views and main events in WWE. But, Sheamus has one accomplishment still pending in his outstanding career, he has not fought Shinsuke Nakamura.

Shinsuke, on the other hand, is mostly competing in SmackDown and NXT. Therefore, he has not come across one half of the RAW tag team champions- Sheamus. A feud between both of them will be exciting and will garner loads of crowd enthusiasm and contribute towards viewership and high TRP of the program. Sheamus is a hardcore brawler and Shinsuke is a technical genius. WWE management should take efforts to make this two fighters face off one another.

#2 Shinsuke Nakamura vs Kane

Kane has various records in his resume that has strengthened his position at the top of the company. He has proved his dominance in RAW, SmackDown and also in ECW. When angry, Kane can demolish anyone who becomes a hindrance in his path. His ultimate aim is to choke-slam any of his opponents and secure victory upon him.

Similarly, Shinsuke has also been a champion globally in various wrestling promotions. But, Shinsuke is yet to face the wrath of the masked 'demon' in WWE. The Big Red Machine and the Japanese superstar have not yet crossed paths in WWE. These two, if they collide can make an outstanding match. Both of them will not stop unless and until they incapacitate each other. They both should face off to turn this dream match into a reality.

#1 Shinsuke Nakamura vs Braun Strowman

Strowman is undoubtedly the number one superstar in WWE today. No player of any size has the capability to stand up to him. He has laid his hands on almost all performers and nobody could survive his wrath till date. He has toyed with players like Brock Lesnar, the Big Show, Kane and basically any WWE superstar he has competed against. He is an unstoppable force.

However, Braun is yet to compete in a one-on-one competition against Shinsuke Nakamura. Nakamura has the advantage over Strowman in terms of speed, agility and innovating new moves. Nakamura has years of experience in professional wrestling and knows how to use his signature move- Kinshasa, to flatten any of his opponents.

These two living legends, if they come face to face with one another, the entire WWE Universe will go crazy to view this match. Though the possibility of such a match seems bleak right now, in future it can be a reality.

Let us wish all these matches take place and the audience gets their money's worth.
