Nakamura v Samoa

Combining a unique blend of hard-hitting strong style with stiff knee-strike based manoeuvres, amazing aerial moves, a stiff armbar submission, and a strong display of his skills as an MMA athlete, Nakamura has one of the most unique moves in the current roster. His finishing move, the "Kinshasa", a running knee from the corner, is a widely recognised fan favourite.

His eccentric style combined with his unique presence in the ring guarantees a great match, given he has a decent counterpart, as is evident by his matches with the likes of Sami Zayn and Bobby Roode from his NXT days.
