7 Reasons Daniel Bryan vs Shinsuke Nakamura Inter-Promotional Match Is Best For Business

Daniel Bryan pitched it and WWE ignored it.

In an interview last week, new WWE Intercontinental Champion Daniel Bryan was asked a very interesting question; If he could bring in any wrestler to the WWE to face them in a match, who would it be? Daniel Bryan€™s face filled with glee gushed that he€™d love to have a match with the IWGP Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. He said that he€™d pitched the idea to have an inter-promotional match between the two champions on the WWE€™s upcoming tour of Japan and to have it air on the WWE Network and New Japan World. His glee was replaced with sarcastic laughter as he exclaimed that he doesn€™t think that anybody really listened to his idea. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=DsTC8FJppJU#t=217 Once hearing this pitch, any fan would have a hard time getting this potential showcase of wrestling artistry out of their mind.
