Depends on if he wanted to be there or not. If he didn't want to be there he really didn't screw himself. Who needed who more?

It was odd, but I don't know that it was screwed up.

To me it looked like Nakamura was tying to sell it as if he was dazed and just completely out of it. I don't think he was supposed to kick out. The event was already running a bit past 11 by that point and the stomp is fairly well protected. It'd be a bit late to kick out of a finisher imo. I feel maybe more like they were told to go home before they really wanted to. Shinsuke in particular looked really unhappy afterwards. Of course, he would have been in character anyway, but it seemed legit.

I didn't even know there was a post match attack. Definitely a weird choice to make it a digital exclusive.

He didnt want to be there and do what afterwards? Retire or go back to WWE? lol

Man cant control his emotions which is sad to say, dude has great character/personality when it comes to storylines but it looks like he lives the character kinda like Ric Flair - but if you live like that...you'll ruin your life like Ric Flair did.

Also

Some people just don't work well with others. Jim Cornette is a good comparison. Definitely the kind of person who doesn't let things go and known to fly off the handle. Which burned a lot of bridges in the wrestling community. But, he's doing his own thing now where he's his own boss, and he seems to be generally satisfied with his life as far as I know. Obviously, I can't speak to his innermost feelings, but he comes off that way.

So maybe being a wrestler just isn't for him at this point in his life. Sadly, I'm never gonna be a top wrestler either, but I think I can still live a happy life. And if I had AJ Lee at home, I wouldn't mind an early retirement either.
