Dolph Ziggler came out to a lukewarm reaction at best. He said everyone is a hypocrite. Then he started talking about his eight-year career and how he’s done so much but he didn’t mention his comedy career. He said the people treat him like a contagious disease.

Then the Nakamura chants started in full force. Ziggler said Nakamura’s never had a match on SmackDown Live and a bunch of NXT chants started. Ziggler said it would all be edited out. Obviously, it wasn’t.
Ziggler said calling Nakamura “The Artist” is pathetic. Point taken. Ziggler started talking about how nobody ever cared what he’s done in his career. But people will care now. Then he called out Shinsuke Nakamura.
The King Of Strong Artist Style came out to a choir of people filling the O2 Arena screaming the melody to his music. Nakamura really does have a rock star entrance.
Nakamura stood there and looked Dolph over while the crowd chanted his name. Ziggler said it’s been almost a month of Shinsuke sashaying out to the ring and it’s time for him to put up or…then Nakamura grabbed the mic and said: “shut up.” Nice.
Nakamura said “I’ll show you now” then a referee came out and the crowd exploded. Shinsuke Nakamura took off his jacket and got ready to rumble.
Suddenly Dolph had a change of heart and said: “nope, we’ll do this when I say so and I’m going to expose you for the fraud you are at Backlash.” Then he jumped Shinsuke.
Nakamura got the upper hand and threw some stiff knees and a stiffer looking kick as Dolph powdered out of the ring. Ziggler acted like he was going to get back in the ring, but he didn’t. Classic heel move.
So it looks like we’re going to be seeing Shinsuke Nakamura finally in his first WWE match. But we gotta wait until Backlash.
