5 Things that must happen on RAW, NXT, and SmackDown this week

#2 Shinsuke Nakamura finds a new challenger

The company could give Shorty G a chance

The Intercontinental Champion, Shinsuke Nakamura, featured in Crown Jewel as the only Champion who was part of the 5-on-5 Team Hogan vs. Team Flair match. This meant that Nakamura was the only singles’ men’s Champion who did not defend his Championship at the event.

When Nakamura was the United States Champion, he barely ever defended it. While WWE is booking him similarly in his current Intercontinental Championship reign, even though we’re getting to see more of him now.

To make things interesting before Survivor Series, the company should find a new long-term challenger for Nakamura to keep him on his feet and also keep the chances of the title changing hands before the pay-per-view alive.

At present, it seems like neither The Fiend nor Brock Lesnar will be losing their titles prior to the event, therefore the company must focus on at least one men’s Championship which could be under threat before the event to keep the speculations coming.

WWE could bring in someone like Shorty G into the picture and have him compete for the title for some weeks as he is currently red-hot and needs to get into a major championship picture.
