#2 Shinsuke Nakamura reclaims the throne of the Strong Style Kingdom

Shinsuke Nakamura, who was the most over star in WWE at one point, has been reduced to nothing more than an enhancement talent now due to poor booking. A veteran who had the capability of being the flag bearer of WWE's Asian expansion projects is currently being working as a sidekick to King Corbin, a role which would have a suited an up and coming heel - not one of the most decorated performers in the entire business. But there's still nothing lost, and if booked right, Nakamura can become as big a star as Brock Lesnar (minus the mainstream appeal due to UFC).

The Artist has been on a downfall since his heel turn, so the first thing that WWE should do is to turn him into a face again. Even better would be allowing him to win the tournament for the vacant Intercontinental Championship, which will lead to tensions between the members of the Artist Collective.

A face turn, along with the return of his old theme song, and proper booking is the route that WWE should take with Nakamura. He needs to have a manager too, just like Bobby Lashley has found one in MVP.

Shinsuke Nakamura for World Champion? Yeah Oh!
