#3 To establish a feud with Braun Strowman
We all know that if he is given a chance to showcase his talent, Shinsuke Nakamura can hang with the best in the business. But that wasn't the case at all during his reign as WWE Intercontinental Champion and he defended his title only a few times in feuds that were not memorable at all.
WWE needs to treat Braun Strowman's reign right and the best way to achieve the same could be to have him face off against Goldberg for the Intercontinental Championship. Not only will this elevate the title, but there would be a degree of uncertainty with regard to who would come out on top considering how well protected both men are.
If Braun Strowman were to pin Goldberg, it would be a passing of the torch and Strowman would certainly become a made man. This is a man who has nearly the same level of intensity as Goldberg did and could take on the mantle of the next 'superhero' in WWE.
And if Goldberg becomes WWE Intercontinental Champion, the field becomes even more exciting.
