WWE’s ‘Special Council To The Tribal Chief’ Paul Heyman recently discussed an intriguing bout at the top of the SmackDown card. Speaking on Talking Smack, Heyman suggested to Shinsuke Nakamura that he may be in line for a shot against the Universal Champion at some point in the future.
‘Nakamura, does it [excite you] just to think that one day, we may actually do King Nakamura against ’˜The Tribal Chief’ Roman Reigns,’ Paul Heyman asked of Nakamura.
Shinsuke Nakamura insisted that Heyman gave his word for the potential ‘dream’ match, and both men shook hands on the ‘deal.’

‘[I] promise, my King. Your kingdom is in good hands, sir” Heyman added before the end of the segment. “I shall send your regards to our Tribal Chief,’
With Shinsuke Nakamura seemingly having a return to his ‘King of Strong Style’ moniker; this could be an ideal time to move the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion into the SmackDown main event scene.
Nakamura is currently in feud with King Corbin, although the tease from Paul Heyman hints at more promising times ahead for the former NXT Champion.
