No, Shinsuke Nakamura shouldn't win Money In The Bank, and here's why: what's the big rush with the latest NXT graduate? He's only been on SmackDown for a short while now and possesses one pay-per-view win over Dolph Ziggler. WWE would be better served taking things slow with Nakamura, easing him into things.

That may seem like heresy to those championing his obvious skills, but the fact is someone like Baron Corbin has been waiting longer for a push on the main roster. Picture John Cena beating Jinder Mahal at SummerSlam to beat Ric Flair's 16-time World Title record, then imagine Corbin brutally stealing Cena's moment by cashing in.

In order for that kind of scenario to happen, Corbin must win Money In The Bank. Put Shinsuke in a feud with Kevin Owens over the United States Title instead, because we'd be guaranteed some good matches out of it.

WWE don't need to hurry with Nakamura at all, and although that may be hard to comprehend, it's for his own good in the long run.
