How good do you think AJ v Nakamura will be?

I don’t doubt they will put on a classic. It’s one thing if it were just us gassing it up, but AJ and Nak are gassing it up too.


So of course they will put on the best match they possibly can. It all depends on how much time they are given.

BUT

It’s the SuperDome, NOT the Tokyo Dome

4 3/4 stars

It'll be very good but WM seems to have a curse of not bringing out the best in the matchups. Won't be an all time classic like people are expecting. Hope I'm wrong though.

I liked Swagsuke in NJPW but it seems like he has either lost a step since NXT or just hasn't connected as much on SD. AJ seems to be getting better and I can't genuinely say the same about Nak. Honestly, it'll be one of the best matches at WM but I think a lot of people will not be as "blown away" as they think they will be.

With expectations this high its almost impossible to live up to them. Also depends on how much time and freedom they get.

Im going to try to enjoy it for what it is :ld:


But if it aint at least 4 stars :ufdup:

Aj had the best match on the card last year, with fukking shame McMahon. I'm not really up on nak like that, but I expect an instant classic.

I expect it to be neutered and regarded as high quality by WWE match rating standards.
I already saw the real encounter in njpw. So, I look at this as a gateway match for people who want to explore other styles and promotions.

With enough time, they should definitely tear the house down. It might not be a classic, but it should be one of the best matches of the night.

Nakamura tore the house down with Sami Zayn, so I’m hoping a match similar to that quality

let's see, there will be zero story going into this besides "I beat you AJ for WW champrionship," So what this boils down to is what entertainment does one get from a fake play fight with zero emotional attachment to either competitor or the outcome, as the draw of this is simply to have a spectacular fake fight.

this is the least interesting match on the card for casuals
