Shinsuke Nakamura Wrestling Top WWE Star In Japan?

– WWE officials are apparently looking at doing Chris Jericho vs. Shinsuke Nakamura when they return to Tokyo, Japan in July. No word yet if they will air another live WWE Network special like last year’s “The Beast In The East” special but they have two shows scheduled for Sumo Hall.

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that the recent Twitter exchange between Jericho and Nakamura, seen below, is being done to build to that match. As noted, Nakamura will debut on April 1st against Sami Zayn at NXT “Takeover: Dallas” during WrestleMania 32 weekend.

Nakamura means nothing. He’s a minor league Jericho wannabe. https://t.co/zpuHBsBX3a
