Nakamura Joining NXT UK Tour in June, Squashing Main Roster Rumors?

News
Mar 21, 2017

Triple H posted a promo poster for an upcoming NXT tour of the UK in June recently and the poster curiously did not include Shinsuke Nakamura, which led to speculation that WWE was not advertising him for the shows because he could be called up to the main roster by then.

However, WWE has now announced specifically that Nakamura will be “joining” the tour. That doesn’t 100% rule out a move to the main roster by then since I guess he could still tour with NXT while on the main roster, but it does sort of throw some water on the speculation for now, at least until June.
