Shinsuke Nakamura is one of the top wrestlers to come out of WWE's NXT promotion and looks set to make his debut on the main roster.

The post-WrestleMania episode of Monday Night Raw is one of the biggest events in WWE every year. According to the latest WWE rumors, Shinsuke Nakamura is expected to make his main roster debut at in this year's post-WrestleMania 33 Raw show.

Some of the biggest debuts in WWE history happened on the post-WrestleMania show. WWE superstars like Umaga, Paige, Mankind, Bill Goldberg and Brock Lesnar all made their WWE debuts on the Raw after WrestleMania, per Daily DDT.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter noted that the WWE is planning something big on this year's post-WrestleMania Raw. He mentioned that the WWE usually finishes the plans for the show on Friday during WrestleMania week but changes are still going to happen until Raw goes live.

The speculated superstar who will make his main roster debut at this year's post-WrestleMania Raw is Shinsuke Nakamura, per Comicbook.com. Many fans thought that he is going to get called up at the Royal Rumble but it did not happen.

Nakamura lost the NXT title to Bobby Roode at NXT TakeOver: San Antonio so his days as an NXT superstar are numbered. He will likely get a rematch for the championship at NXT TakeOver: Orlando in what could be his final match on the developmental brand.

"The King of Strong Style" is one of the most charismatic wrestlers in the world. The post-WrestleMania Raw is the perfect show for him to make his main roster debut. However, there is a big chance that he will get lost on Raw and his better off on SmackDown Live.

The WWE can always give Nakamura his main roster debut at the WWE Draft just like what they did for Finn Balor last year. Many fans expected Balor to make his debut the post-WrestleMania 32 Raw but he stayed at NXT for several more months.

This year's WWE Draft is rumored to be earlier than June so the company can always hold off Nakamura's debut. He is much better suited on SmackDown Live, especially with A.J. Styles possibly moving to Raw.

Nevertheless, these are just WWE rumors at the moment. It should be taken with a grain of salt as the WWE tends to change their plans until the last minute. Check out the video below to watch one of Nakamura's amazing entrances.
