Shinsuke Nakamura Cleared To Return From Injury

WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura has announced that he’s been cleared to make his return from injury.

Nakamura has been out of action since December due to a hand injury, but has now taken to his Instagram Story to declare that he’s been given the go-ahead for a comeback.

He took a selfie showing off an x-ray of his previously injured hand, and also one of him travelling to Kansas City – the host of tonight’s SmackDown – with Natalya.

Now that he’s been cleared, Shinsuke Nakamura could be an entrant in tomorrow night’s Royal Rumble match which he hasn’t yet been announced for, likely because of the injury. You can keep track of all confirmed Royal Rumble entrants with our list at this link.

PWInsider also recently reported that King Woods was set to return to the road as of tonight’s SmackDown, but it was unknown whether he’d been cleared to return to in-ring action yet.
