Shinsuke Nakamura makes disrespectful comments towards former Champion on SmackDown

Modified Dec 14, 2024 03:13 GMT

Shinsuke Nakamura won his first singles title in three years at Survivor Series. He has now sent a disrespectful message toward a former champion.

Shinsuke Nakamura returned from several months of hiatus and targeted LA Knight. After weeks of getting into Knight's head, he defeated him for the United States Championship at Survivor Series: WarGames.

Last week on SmackDown, LA Knight demanded a rematch against Nakamura but was attacked by the Bloodline. However, it looks like The King of Strong Style still hasn't forgotten about the former United States Champion.

Tonight on the Blue Brand, Nakamura appeared in another vignette, saying that a shift has taken place. He said the weak have been victors for too long, but he will expose their weaknesses and drag them to light. He then stated that LA Knight was just the beginning. He added that the Knight didn't deserve the US Championship and should've never even laid hands on the title. He finished his segment by saying that he is imminent and inevitable.

Shinsuke grows more dangerous with each passing day, and with the United States Championship around his waist, he is indeed inevitable.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
