5 Surprises for SmackDown: Legendary duo to lose return match after 14 months, RAW Superstar to make an unexpected appearance?

#2. King Nakamura gets dethroned on SmackDown

Shinsuke Nakamura getting the best kind of entrance on SmackDown

Shinsuke Nakamura vs. King Corbin on SmackDown has turned into a surprisingly enjoyable feud. The premise of it is simple. Nakamura possesses the crown that Corbin won at King of The Ring.

It isn't necessarily a pay-per-view-worthy match, as they've already faced off a few times now. While King Corbin holds the majority of the victories, Shinsuke Nakamura won a pivotal match last week.

The crown is now in his possession and Corbin will do everything he can to regain it. Only unofficially is Nakamura the "king", but it certainly suits him.

What would be surprising is if WWE abruptly ended the rivalry and gave King Corbin back his crown. We won't be surprised to see him on the winning end of this fun rivalry, especially since he's a star who might be with the company longer than the Japanese superstar.

Also, WWE's previous handling of Shinsuke Nakamura has left a lot to be desired, so that part wouldn't be surprising. But an abrupt end to the story would.
