It was very odd indeed how Shinsuke Nakamura used to be the WWE Intercontinental Champion but then, just removed himself from the scene allowing for Sami Zayn to claim the prize. And now, he is just one of the people in Sami Zayn's faction, playing second fiddle to him.
I think that it is all too likely that Shinsuke Nakamura could choose to betray the leader of his group on the Grandest Stage of Them All. Or at least, what used to be known as the grandest stage of them all, once upon a time.

Shinsuke Nakamura still has the catchiest tune in all of sports entertainment and yes, he could certainly become a babyface once again, inserting himself into a feud with Sami Zayn and Cesaro. After all, WrestleMania is only a pit stop and WWE programming needs to continue well beyond it too.
Do you think Shinsuke Nakamura should become a babyface?? Or do you like him better as a heel in the current role that he's in?
