Nakamura will always be held back by his lack of English skills, it's a shame he doesn't have Boogs as his manager anymore

AEW has proven lack of english skills doesnt hold you back unless you want it to

and I would argue Nak was mega over in nxt, mega over on his sdl debut. the reason he has not resonated for audience beyond that is because wwe booked him in a way to tells the audience he is unimportant and interchangeable

WWE fucked ruined his run by not actually having him win the world title after he won the Royal Rumble.

definitely. He needed that dub there. Even if he lost the Championship back to AJ the next month and did everything the same.

Also: Should have faced Sami Zayn in his main roster feud. Save his matches mostly for big PPVs early on and focus on people who can wrestle his style.

AJ should have just won the title from Jinder at Summerslam. Nakamura beats KO for the US title rather than the dumb Shane guest ref thing. Then has a workhorse reign as IC Champion. Maybe get some interaction with AJ in the winter without a match, then Rumble win, US title is dropped just before or after (Three way without being pinned?) Then wins at Mania in a match they let Nakamura be Nakamura in.

Good example: Penta. Primarily speaks Spanish, but has great intensity in his speeches. If Nakamura needed an English voice, could have had a manager/Business representative.

If we're more honest, the biggest problem is that Nak really didn't fit the mold of the style Vince wanted, and thank god Vince is gone so we're actually getting a more varied group of styles now.

Okada is getting over with a primarily sports entertainment gimmick - it would 100% work in wwe
