The King of Strong Style made his (some would say long overdue) first appearance as a main roster Superstar on the Tuesday, April 4 episode of SmackDown LIVE. Played in by his TakeOver: Brooklyn II partner-in-crime Lee England, Jr., two-time NXT champion Shinsuke Nakamura didn’t do much but exude his usual rock star charisma, but it was enough to electrify the Orlando crowd and create a moment worth re-visiting.
Hello #SDLive !! Feel #TheVibe #YeahOh !!!

The Amway Center audience was also treated to a dark match where Nak took down Dolph Ziggler with his Kinshasa finisher. But the rest of us will have to wait until at least next Tuesday for a glimpse of that.
In the meantime, just keep clicking “play” on the above video.
UPDATE: You can also watch it in Slo-Mo... which is somehow EVEN COOLER!
