    Nakamura on Talk with Jericho:

    Footnotes:

    1. Nakamura/Daniel Bryan/Lyota Machida shared the same apartment while starting up in the business
    2. Lyota Machida only speaks Portuguese and nothing else so it was difficult for Byran and Naka to communicate with him,hahahah
    3. Nakamura's character didn't begin to transform into magic until he wrestled in Mexico!!! That was his first test audience and they loved it!
    4. Asuka speaks a very different dialect in Japanese, and even Nakamura doesn't understand
    5. Michael Jackson,Bruce Lee,Jackie Chan, Jushin Thunder Liger are his inspirations
    6. Japanese people learn English in middle school. Japanese people are shy to speak it.
    7. He says the reason his whole offense is based on his knee is because back when he was doing MMA briefly, the knees did so much damage to the human body whether he was receiving t or dishing it, lol.
    8. He likes to surf and move to Cocoa beach even when moved to the main roster.
    9. Nakamura imagines if Freddy Mercury knows martial arts. It would resemble what he does in the ring.
    10. He wants to wrestle John Cena.
    11. His favorite match in his whole career is against Kota Ibushi. He thought Ibushi wanted to fight for real and didn't understand if it was a shoot match or acting. He also thinks Ibushi is a weird and strange dude.
    12. His favorite Michael Jackson song is Human Nature.

    probably their last show since they were advertised for it when they first announced the Texas shows beginning of June, I think this is their last tour outside of FL till after Summerslam

    Sami Zayn did the same after his Royal Rumble call up

    I became a fan of Nakamura without even seeing him wrestle. Your list did it first. That dude is awesome. Just watched his match with Sammy Zane.

    Naw, they don't travel often, and NXT aren't treated like the main roster guys, hell they still setup the ring when they travel locally in FL.

    That was a great show, that tag match with Revival and Ciampa/Gargano was the best match that nobody has seen, I thought Ciampa/Gargano were seriously going to win the title.

    Good god Mandy Rose is gorgeous in person. Looked good from the balcony, but saw her walking to the bus with Daria, damn she's smoking....

    Nice send off to the people to the main roster, I have a video of it, about 14 mins, working on uploading it plus my 100 pics, mostly of the Woman's tag match and main event. I'll link it once I have it uploaded.

    EDIT: Google Photo Album link with pics

    working on videos, have Finn, Nakamura entrances, and 13 min sendoff video

    I think I lost my damn Voice for chanting all night. Lol. That tag match was lit as ***. Asuka is damn fine and once again proved she is the best woman wrestler in the world. Y'all heard that pop foe Nak? Damn!
