#7 Nakamura can really deliver a promo in English!
Trending
Shinsuke Nakamura almost doesn’t need to have good mic skills. His in ring work and non-verbal charisma alone are more than enough to get him over. However, you do worry that in Vince’s eyes the Japanese sensation will never be main event material because part of being a top guy in the WWE is being able to deliver a verbal promo efficiently.
At least that’s the idea. Over the years the WWE have focused far too much on scripts and keeping their content safe that most of the superstars feel a bit caged in. If anything, this makes Nakamura’s lack of English skills a bit of a novelty. He sounds different to the others and speaks in a more excitable way.
Stick a WWE script in front of him, and he’ll probably fail miserably. The company needs to let Shinsuke be himself, and if NXT was anything to go by this week, he’s more than capable of giving a good account of himself if he is allowed to speak from the heart.
He clearly loves NXT and the NXT fans and made sure to let everybody know this during his farewell speech this week. If he can deliver promos like that on SmackDown, he actually should be earmarked for a world title sooner rather than later.
