Alright, alright, let’s talk about this fella, Shin-su-kay, yeah, that Shin-su-kay Nakamura. Folks been askin’ me, “Is he hurt? Where’d he go?” Well, lemme tell ya what I heard, pieced together like a quilt from scraps of gossip and whatnot.
Ain’t nobody said he’s broke a leg or nothin’. Heard tell he’s been jumpin’ around on them overseas shows, you know, wrestlin’ and such. So, he ain’t laid up in no bed, that’s for sure. Been doin’ his job, earnin’ his keep.
Now, this fella, Sean Ross Sapp, he’s got a podcast, talks about wrestlin’. He says Shin-su-kay’s healthy as a horse, just ain’t been on TV much. Don’t know why WWE ain’t puttin’ him on the screen, maybe they got too many fellas already, who knows? They do things their own way, them TV folks.
But hold on, it gets interestin’. Heard Shin-su-kay’s goin’ back to Japan for a bit, wrestle over there. But he ain’t leavin’ WWE for good, no sir. Signed a paper a while back, still stickin’ around. Won some belts too, NXT, Intercontinental, United States, and even some tag team thing. So, he’s a big deal, this fella.
It’s been a long spell though, since April folks ain’t seen him on TV. That’s like, what, four months? Long time to be missin’ from your job, makes ya wonder what’s really goin’ on. He’s over 40 years old, you know, maybe he’s gettin’ tired of all that jumpin’ and bumpin’ around.
- He’s healthy, that’s what they say.
- He’s been workin’ overseas shows.
- He’s goin’ to Japan, but comin’ back.
- He’s been gone from TV since April.
Then, whaddya know, bam! He pops up on TV again! This fella, LA Knight, he’s talkin’ smack, and Shin-su-kay, he comes out and gives him a good whoopin’. Just like that, back on the screen. So, all that worryin’ for nothin’, I guess.
There was some talk about his hand. Said somethin’ about it on that Instagram thingy, you know, where they post pictures. Said it was all better now. So maybe he was hurt a little, but not anymore. It’s hard to keep track, these fellas are always gettin’ banged up.
And then some other fella, works behind the scenes, you know, writin’ the stories for the wrestlin’ shows. He said Shin-su-kay wasn’t hurt, it was just part of the show, part of the story. Make-believe, you see. So maybe he was just takin’ a break, like goin’ on vacation. Or maybe they were hidin’ him, savin’ him for a surprise.
Anyhow, seems like he’s back now, ready to wrestle. So, all the fuss about him bein’ hurt, wasn’t true. He’s back on TV, smackin’ fellas around. Just like he always does. That’s wrestlin’ for ya, always keepin’ ya guessin’.
