#1 Can Nakamura rejuvenate himself?

Nakamura was in the midst of a dream run when he won the Royal Rumble and faced AJ Styles in a dream match for the WWE Championship, but after a half-decent feud against the champion, he continued to spiral down the card. His Nakamerica gimmick fell flat, and after he lost his US title, he got lost in the tag team division with Rusev and performed as an enhancement talent.

As reported earlier, Rusev has taken time off from WWE TV. This time off from Rusev sets Nakamura free for his solo ventures. Fans expectations peaked when Nakamura cut off the Intercontinental Champion Finn Balor during a backstage interview.

WWE has announced a match on Smackdown between the two former NJPW stars. Will it start to build Nakamura again as a lethal striker, or could this be just a filler feud for Finn Balor? Could Eric Bischoff play a part in rejuvenating Nakamura?
