The King of Strong Style is one of the greatest Japanese performers in wrestling history, and although his run on the main roster has been somewhat of a disappointment, he's still an elite level performer.

Back after leaving the WWE for the first time in 2004, Brock actually appeared for several matches in New Japan, and one of those bouts was against Nakamura, so considering that history, this one makes a lot of sense.

Before this bout, the WWE would have to go a long way in restoring Shinsuke's credibility as a strong style performer, and if that's done correctly, he could be back on the main event scene in no time.

When the former IWGP Champion came to the WWE through NXT, Brock Lesnar was regarded as one of the dream matches fans had for him, and despite the lackluster start to his main roster career, that's still the case, as he is one of the only performers in WWE who could match Brock for strikes, and it would make for a brutal affair.
