Shinsuke Nakamura (中邑 真輔, Nakamura Shinsuke, born February 24, 1980) is an Japanese professional wrestler and mixed martial artist. He currently works for WWE on the SmackDown brand. In New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) he is a former three-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion, three-time IWGP Intercontinental Champion, one-time IWGP Tag Team Champion and was the winner of the 2011 G1 Climax, 2006 G1 Tag League and 2014 New Japan Cup tournaments.

At Invasion Attack 2014 on April 6, Nakamura defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi to win the IWGP Intercontinental Championship for the third time in his career.[2] On June 21 at Dominion 6.21, Nakamura was defeated by Bad Luck Fale for the championship.[3] Nakamura took part in the 2014 G1 Climax. In his block, he was able to win eight times and only suffered two losses. He was able to make it to the finals but lost to his Chaos stablemate Kazuchika Okada on August 10.[4]

In 2016, Nakamura joined WWE. He began on the NXT brand, where he became a two-time NXT Champion. On their main roster, he won the men's Royal Rumble match in 2018, the United States Championship three times, the Intercontinental Championship twice (making him the second wrestler after Chris Jericho to become WWE and IWGP Intercontinental Champion) and the SmackDown Tag Team Championship with Cesaro.
