Shinsuke Nakamura Career 

Nakamura started his wrestling journey in his home country’s NJPW in 2002. He quickly started building a name for himself and was a very bright prospect in the company.

For the next 12 years he stayed in the New Japan Pro Wrestling promotion and was also seen in many other minor promotions in countries like Mexico. He also appeared in TNA in the year 2008 but was not signed with them full time.

Nakamura finally got his big break in 2016 when WWE signed him for the NXT brand. He made his NXT debut in April when he defeated Sami Zayn. Just a few months after making his debut, Nakamura won the NXT championship in August after defeating Samoa Joe.

Nakamura was very impressive in his NXT reign and was also called up to the main roster just after a year. He made his SmackDown debut in April 2017. Upon his arrival to the main roster, he also picked up a long running feud with Dolph Ziggler.

Nakamura went on to win the 2018 Royal Rumble and challenged AJ Styles for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 34. However, The Child of God was not able to get the job done and ended up loosing the match. Right after his clash with AJ Styles, Nakamura’s character took a heel turn and he also started pursuing the United States championship.

Nakamura defeated Jeff Hardy at ExtremeRules 2018 to capture the United States championship. Exactly a year later, the Supernova capture the Intercontinental championship at the ExtremeRules 2019. In 2020, Nakamura captured his first ever tag title when he along with Cesaro defeated the New Day at ExtremeRules. The ExtremeRules PPV has certainly yielded very great results for the Japanese wrestler.
