Shinsuke Nakamura Calls Royal Rumble Win His Biggest Career Achievement ‘Until Wrestlemania’, Says He Finally Feels Adjusted To WWE

Shinsuke Nakamura spoke with ESPN.com‘s Arash Markazi after his Royal Rumble match win; you can read a few highlights below:

Nakamura comments on what his Royal Rumble win means to him: 

“I believe this is the biggest thing to happen in my career so far. That’s until WrestleMania this year which will be the biggest thing in my life.”

Nakamura says he knew how important the Royal Rumble match is, but he’s never seen one: 

“I really felt the people behind me. You had (John) Cena, Roman, Randy (Orton), the biggest stars in the WWE and I feel like I’m a new guy, but the WWE Universe really supported me.

This was my first time being in a match with these kinds of rules. I’ve never watched a Royal Rumble match. This was my first time. I wanted to enjoy it for the first time being in it.”

Nakamura comments on being comfortable in NXT, but making adjustments on the WWE roster: 

“When I came to NXT, I didn’t need to adjust. NXT fans are hardcore wrestling fans. I just had to wrestle and they reacted but when I got called up to SmackDown it was different. There’s just a difference in the live events. So last year I had to make an adjustment from NXT to SmackDown like others have done from NXT to Raw. It takes time to adjust but today I finally feel like I’m there. I feel at home. It’s hard to choose the words even if I was speaking Japanese. It’s hard to find the words.”
