Shinsuke Nakamura Returns to WWE SmackDown

Shinsuke Nakamura made a surprise return to WWE during the November 15 episode of SmackDown, attacking LA Knight after Knight successfully defended his United States Championship against Berto from Legado del Fantasma. This marked Nakamura's first appearance on WWE television since losing to Sheamus on April 22, with his last match occurring at a live event in October. Dressed in all black, Nakamura laid out Knight with two kicks, hinting at a potential future title challenge. Following his attack, Nakamura left the ring without speaking, leaving fans speculating about his next move. This return is significant as Nakamura has been on the sidelines for months, with his last televised match being in April. The wrestling community is eager to see how this storyline develops as Nakamura aims for the United States Title.
