Jeff Jarrett Says Shinsuke Nakamura Is The Best Sports Entertainer Japan Has Produced

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett has praised Shinsuke Nakamura for his presentation, believing that he’s one of the best sports entertainers in the world.

Speaking on a recent episode of WWE The Bump, Jarrett argued that Nakamura is the best sports entertainer that Japan has ever produced:

“When you see him (Shinsuke) perform live in Japan, in a dome show. And his entrance is just mesmerizing and the motif, the ode to Michael Jackson. And then he gets in the ring and kicks a** the way he does. And super aggressive and super athletic. He is truly, in a lot of ways, I don’t wanna say the first, but to me he is the best sports entertainer that Japan has ever produced. Maybe by a long shot.”

A former IWGP Heavyweight, Intercontinental and Tag Team champion, Nakamura joined NXT in 2016, where he quickly gained popularity with WWE fans.

After an NXT Title reign, Nakamura debuted on the main roster in April 2017. During his time on the main roster, Nakamura has won the WWE Intercontinental, US and SmackDown Tag Team championships, in addition to the 2018 Royal Rumble bout.

Nakamura last wrestled on the July 22 edition of SmackDown, losing to Ludwig Kaiser in singles action. Stay up to date with WWE win/loss records for 2022 using our tracker at this link.
