Oh man I hope it's AJ/Nak at Greatest Royal Rumble ... lol

Though after that stinker, Nak might be off the card. That was Orton level boring. Best entrance in WM history but meh.
Pretty bad when you stink up the joint at Wrestlemania, when you're working with AJ Styles.
Nak fucking sucks. It's just a fact, folks.
Nakamura doesn't suck compared to most of the guys in the business today, but your initial post is still fairly accurate. I love his theme song... but that's about it. I want to like Nakamura, but his in-ring work just isn't very good.
When I hear people talk about how amazing Nakamura is, I really wonder if he's getting a pass from younger fans who are into anime and have never been exposed to wrestling's glory days.
Kazuchika Okada is a good Japanese wrestler with charisma. Nakamura, not so much.
most of those same people were all excited when the ascension was brought up too. i have come to realize the more excited the people are about new talents, the less likely it is that they won't suckI've never understood the hype. I remember when he first got signed, and everyone was all "Check this match out! Or this other match that Dave Meltzer gave 99 stars to."
So I did. Saw a bunch of sloppy ass kicks and knees, that looked like botches. I was like "That's it? That is the guy everyone is so excited for?" I have no idea what the appeal is, and still don't. He's an enigma to me. You combine his sloppy work, with his cringe inducing mannerisms and promos, and it just boggles my mind at how he has any fans at all.
Compare it to when Neville got signed, and I checked out his shit. Now that was impressive. I was at least sold on his ability. With Nak, I just throw my hands up in air, wondering to this day what everyone sees in this cat.

i have a terrible memory, but i seem to remember some excitement. definitely agree with the revival too. their gimmick seems to actually be that they dont do anything and they have no personality. well, at least they didnt lieCan't say I remember too much Ascension hype. I actually remember a lot of NXT marks in here warning everyone that they were shit.
Now, replace The Ascension with The Revival, and I'd agree. I swear, those midgets get hype, solely because one guy kinda looks and acts like Arn Anderson. Those guys suck, and are going nowhere fast.
I tried to warn you. I really did. Nak will be a mid-card jobber by Summerslam. Only a matter of time before they retool his character, and really start fucking with him.

Since you said this he won the Royal Rumble and was in a title match at Wrestlemania, and has turned heel. He's not a midcard jobber and his character hasn't been "fucked with".
Summerslam, bruh.
This is just the beginning...
The heel turn was a good idea though.
My point is he's been on an upward trajectory since that post ... went from losing title matches on weaker ppvs, to winning the Rumble and being in a marquee Mania match. Assuming he interferes in tonight's main event, he's in the WWE title scene until at least a couple months before Summerslam.
