They've battled before over in Japan in a classic that Brock Lesnar came out on top in, so there's your storyline set up there. Plus, I know that quite literally every single member of the WWE Universe wants to see this match. Yesterday. 

Nakamura has already captivated the imagination of the NXT Universe like few others have following his rousing debut at TakeOver:Dallas. He arrived with a huge reputation and delivered, putting on a five star match with Sami Zayn that is already a leading contender for match of the year. 

The King of Strong Style and The Beast going head to head is just something that needs to happen, and sharpish.  

I suppose it's just down to what Triple H has planned for the three-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion as to when this match could happen. How long will The Game have him down in developmental before letting him off the leash on the main roster?
