#2 Shinsuke Nakamura
Nakamura was one of the biggest Japanese superstars when he first joined WWE. He had an exceptional run in NXT, facing off in high quality match-ups against the likes of Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe and Finn Balor.
Nakamura, however, was supremely wasted on the main roster. Part of it was the booking he received, and some blame goes to Nakamura as well. He never looked like his NXT self on the main roster, and his matches never had the intensity of his NXT ones.
Shinsuke Nakamura will be a major signing for AEW, as they could bring in more Japanese audiences with the signing of the former IWGP heavyweight champion.
Nakamura facing off against Kenny Omega once again will definitely help AEW boost their numbers. The Rockstar needs to start rocking the wrestling ring once again!
