5 ways Shinsuke Nakamura could interfere in WWE title match at Clash Of Champions

#1 Clash Of ‘Champions’

Shinsuke Nakamura -- one of the sport's greatest champions -- ought to use Clash Of Champions as a platform to propel himself to the upper echelons of the WWE food chain

Having held the IWGP Heavyweight Championship thrice, besides also winning several other titles in NJPW, Shinsuke Nakamura is also a 2-time NXT Champion. On the other hand, AJ Styles has been a champion virtually everywhere he’s wrestled, right from NJPW, ROH to TNA (Impact Wrestling).

Styles is also a 2-time WWE Champion and has held the United States Champion on a couple of occasions as well. The Phenomenal One is the reigning, undisputed WWE Champion and will defend his belt against former WWE Champ Jinder Mahal.

That’s a laundry list of accolades these men will share with one another when they enter the squared circle, and considering that Mahal faces off with Styles at a PPV which is specifically promoted as ‘Clash Of Champions’, it makes all the sense in the world to have said champions battle it out at the show.

The WWE has two of the most decorated champions in professional wrestling history in Nakamura and Styles, and it would be rather befitting if Mahal gets ‘taken out’ backstage in the beginning of the PPV, following which the WWE swerves the fans and announces Shinsuke Nakamura to be the new challenger for the WWE Championship, to face AJ Styles on just a couple of hours’ notice.

Just imagine the insane pop The Artist would get at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts should he defy the odds and defeat Styles, winning the WWE Championship for the very first time!
