On the final episode of WWE SmackDown before WrestleMania Backlash, we saw a singles bout between Shinsuke Nakamura and King Corbin. The King of Strong Style picked a convincing victory over Corbin and showed glimpses of his old brutal self. Interestingly, after the match, Nakamura took Corbin’s crown and put it over his head.

WWE creative brilliantly used this turn of events to subtlely tease a promising battle of kings on SmackDown. The commentators vehemently discussed Nakamura’s ‘disrespectful actions.’ It has been a while since we have seen either of these two WWE Superstars involved in a compelling rivalry. That could change if they are brought together for a memorable storyline.

No one has challenged Corbin’s authority as the ‘King of the Ring’ since he won that crown. This would be the best way to restore the honor of this esteemed title as well. Most importantly, we could see Nakamura finally getting the attention that he deserves. He has been on the sidelines for far too long, and the WWE creative will have a lot of interesting opportunities to explore once he starts competing actively on SmackDown.
