Shinsuke Nakamura discusses how his role in WWE is changing.
Nakamura made his WWE debut over eight years ago, initially beginning in NXT before being moved to the WWE main roster where he has remained a staple of the promotion since.
Backstage at UFC 303, Shinsuke spoke to Aaron Bronsteter of Sports Net and was asked how his role in WWE is changing.
"Oh, yeah. So I've been wrestling over eight years right now. So I want to keep wrestling in WWE. Also, I give the fans more like a dream. So that's what I want to do. So I want to show my passion. So also I brought the Japanese style to WWE, but still I think not accomplished. So still I'm challenging, keep challenging."
