10 New WWE Directions For Shinsuke Nakamura
6. Facing Chad Gable
Chad Gable finds himself in singles limbo, now that Jason Jordan has been revealed as Kurt Angle's son (it still sounds weird, doesn't it?). The former amateur wrestler may not be as physically imposing as his former tag partner, but has all the in-ring skills and technical ability to become one of the best in the business - should WWE push him correctly, that is.
Things look promising after a fresh match with Rusev last week, and although he lost, Gable certainly proved that he deserves to hang with the big boys on a more regular basis.
Should Nakamura triumph at SummerSlam, a respectful face vs. face match with Chad would be an excellent title match somewhere down the line. Shinsuke has plenty of experience facing fellow fan favourites after his battles with Ibushi and Tanahashi in New Japan, as well as that previously mentioned NXT debut against Sami Zayn.
