10 WWE Moments You Never Thought You'd See (But Did In 2017)
10. Shinsuke Nakamura Pins John Cena And Randy Orton
The King of Strong Style has had a disappointing year on the main roster.
Shinsuke Nakamura was moved into a feud with Jinder Mahal over the summer, being subjected to constant racial discrimination from the Modern Day Maharaja in some of the worst TV segments of the year. To make matters worse, Mahal won the feud. Being a racist heel in WWE often pays off.
In order to get those matches with Jinder, Shinsuke Nakamura had to do what few men have done in the modern history of WWE. Nakamura faced off against John Cena and Randy Orton respectively, and was able to defeat both. He also managed to beat both clean as a whistle, in the centre of the ring.
WWE fans will have had conflicting hopes about how WWE was going to book Nakamura on the main roster. If the Jinder stuff is ignored, not even the most optimistic of Swagsuke fans could see him defeating the two modern pillars of WWE within six months of joining the main roster.
