Shinsuke Nakamura Set for Friday’s SmackDown in Brooklyn, NY – Shinsuke Nakamura is set to make his return to WWE television, with PWInsider reporting that he is expected to appear at this Friday’s SmackDown in Brooklyn, New York. WWE will air a live episode, followed by the taping of next week’s Crown Jewel go-home edition of SmackDown.
Nakamura has not been featured in a TV match since April 22nd, when he lost to Sheamus on WWE RAW. Since then, he has been involved in dark matches and house shows, but not on WWE’s televised programs. His last major involvement was during WWE’s European tour in August ahead of Bash in Berlin. Despite his absence from TV, Nakamura has been active on live event circuits.
According to Fightful Select, Nakamura is fully healthy and capable of competing, but for reasons not made public, WWE has not used him on their regular programming. His lack of presence on TV has been a topic of speculation among fans, particularly because he remains a major international star and continues to perform in non-televised matches.
The Japanese star’s expected return at SmackDown in Brooklyn may signify that WWE is finally ready to bring Nakamura back into storylines or set him up for future matches. However, it is unclear what role he will play upon his return or if he will be integrated into any major upcoming events, such as Crown Jewel. Fans are eager to see how WWE will utilize Nakamura moving forward.
