Speaking of which, it would be a nice touch to have a Japanese Superstar challenge an Indian one (well, Canadian technically) for the WWE Championship.

Even as Kenny Omega inches closer to taking Okada’s IWGP Heavyweight Championship, so does Nakamura to gold in the WWE main roster.
How convenient. Whatever else you say about Vince McMahon though, he’s certainly a man with a plan.
