#1 Shinsuke Nakamura debuts
NXT call-ups have been a staple of the post-WrestleMania Raw for years, and there are a few different candidates who could show up one this year's ever-exciting episode. Tye Dillinger had a one-off appearance in the Royal Rumble, Asuka could be ready to wreck havoc any day now, but Shinsuke Nakamura debuting that night is virtually a guarantee.
Nakamura was conspicuous by his absence on the poster promoting NXT's upcoming tour of the United Kingdom this June, while everyone else was present. He will receive his rematch for the NXT Championship at TakeOver: Orlando, but beyond that, he has done it all on the black-and-yellow brand.
Now, there is a very good chance he will be signed to SmackDown Live instead, and there is no telling whether SmackDown that same week will be just as must-see as Raw. But Raw will have the hotter crowd of the two, and if WWE wants to make the moment as memorable as possible with the crowd singing his epic entrance music, he will arrive on Raw the night after WrestleMania.
