Shinsuke Nakamura has been spinning his wheels in NXT.

The Japanese superstar is as charismatic a performer as the developmental brand has seen. Since the moment he debuted, fans have speculated when WWE will deem him 'ready' for main-roster action.

The time is surely now.

Currently, Nakamura is booked to have his NXT Championship rematch at TakeOver: Orlando, a well-entrenched tradition to keep the title meaningful. We must assume that the King of Strong Style will lose in order to free him up for his promotion - at which juncture the speculation can begin. Could it be the Raw after 'Mania? Or the SmackDown? Or will there be a new draft where Nakamura will be the top prospect? All of this will keep WWE fans guessing until he finally arrives and starts Bomaye-ing foes left, right and centre.

Nakamura could be followed by other prospects like The Revival or #DIY, but expect the Japanese sensation to make his move soon after WrestleMania closes.
