Shinsuke Nakamura has been playing with Seth Rollins like a fiddle ever since their match at Payback 2023. After being defeated at the Premium Live Event, The King of Strong Style has been constantly denying The Visionary's offer for a rematch.
On the September 18, 2023 edition of Monday Night RAW, Nakamura went up against Ricochet. The One and Only got disqualified after hitting Nakamura with a steel chair, resulting in a quarrel with the referee. Nakamura took advantage of it and hit Ricochet from behind, but Seth Rollins arrived in time to launch an attack on The King of Strong Style.
Unfortunately, Nakamura turned it around and demolished Rollins with a steel chair before slamming him on the announcer’s desk. The Visionary needed help to return to the locker room. Following that, Rollins was stopped by Byron Saxton to ask how he was feeling. This is when The Visionary snapped and claimed he was tired of Nakamura’s mind games and would do anything to bring him into the ring. Hence, he asked The King of Strong Style to choose the conditions.
Seth Rollins asked Nakamura to pick the time, place, and even stipulation, if needed, for their rematch. If The King of Strong Style wants to stay true to his word of ending Seth Rollins for good, one of the stipulations he can pick is ‘No Disqualification.’ This allows Nakamura to target Rollins’ tormented back with whatever weapon he wants, be it a steel chair or a kendo stick. Furthermore, this stipulation has not been used recently, and Fastlane 2023 can witness its comeback.
On the other hand, a ‘Last Man Standing’ match can be another dangerous pick for the current champion. He needed help to stand up after Nakamura’s ringside attack on RAW last week, and officials had to interfere in that brawl. However, a situation where no one can interfere will allow Shinsuke Nakamura to injure The Visionary without any set boundaries.
