6. Jim Cornette Is Worried About How Shinsuke Nakamura Will Be Presented On The WWE Main Roster
During a recent appearance on the Ross Report, Legendary Manager Jim Cornette noted that he’s worried about how NXT’s newest Superstar, Shinsuke Nakamura, will be presented on the WWE main roster. Below is what he said:
“I think it comes down to he will be a superstar in NXT and people are going to love him whenever he appears with that brand. And when he gets to the main roster, I’ve got to be honest with you, I think it depends on how Vince sees him.
Obviously, everything in WWE depends on how Vince sees something, but he hasn’t had the best track record, and I’ll tell you, it’s not a racist thing with international stars, whether it be luchadores, whether it be Japanese talent, or whether it be anybody from Europe.
Sometimes, the chairman does not understand what they have meant to their world because he’s so isolated in his and he tries, possibly, to remake them in the image that he perceives for them. That may not work. I think a guy like Nakamura’s another guy like Steve Austin and Brock Lesnar and essentially the more he’s himself and he’s allowed to do his thing, the better off he’ll be.”
