The 10 Coolest nicknames in wrestling history

The Texas Rattlesnake 

9: King of Strong Style – Shinsuke Nakamura

King Charisma

Shinsuke Nakamura is one of the best wrestlers in the world today by all accounts. He was one of the most popular wrestlers of all time in Japan during his time there with NJPW where he is a former 3-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion amongst other accolades.

His distinct martial arts inspired style of stiff shots and hard kicks led him to christen himself the ‘King of Strong Style’, a nickname that’s more than apt for Nakamura.

Nakamura has hit the ground running in WWE since finally signing with the kings of sports entertainment earlier this year. His debut match against Samy Zayn at NXT Takeover: Dallas was one of the best matches of WrestleMania weekend.
