Former WWE Intercontinental champion Shinsuke Nakamura recently took to his Instagram account to react to a post from a top AEW star. Shinsuke has been absent from WWE TV for the past few months.
The top AEW performer in question is none other than Minoru Suzuki. The Japanese wrestling legend has been a regular performer in Tony Khan's promotion for the past few years. Suzuki performs in several independent promotions as well. Meanwhile, the 56-year-old was recently featured in Shinsuke Nakamura's Instagram story.
Shinsuke Nakamura has not been on WWE TV for the past few months but has been wrestling in Dark matches and live events. Amid his absence, Nakamura shared an interesting Instagram story. Recently, Minoru Suzuki shared pictures of Japanese wrestling veteran Yoshihiro Takayama with Shinsuke's autographed action figures on his social media account. The AEW star was also present in one of the two pictures.
The WWE Superstar took notice of the above post and shared the picture of Minoru Suzuki and Yoshihiro Takayama with Nakamura's signed action figures on his recent Instagram story. Shinsuke also shared a two-word message.

The King of Strong Style last appeared on WWE TV on the April 22, 2024, episode of Monday Night RAW. The veteran locked horns with Sheamus in a losing cause. He was moved to Friday Night SmackDown during the 2024 WWE Draft. However, Nakamura has not made a televised appearance on the blue brand since then.
Amid his absence from WWE TV, Shinsuke was recently spotted with Minoru Suzuki. The AEW star recently shared a picture with Shinsuke on his Instagram account and claimed that the duo had a ''great time.''
"Shinsuke Nakamura and I went to a Mexican restaurant. We had a great time with a wide variety of topics, from old to current stories! Didn't really change as it used to be. Margaritas are great for the Mexican restaurant! When they say, I drink! Well, this is huge, and it felt like a margarita, lol!" he wrote. [Translated from Japanese]
Meanwhile, Minoru Suzuki is set to challenge Chris Jericho for the FTW Championship on the Blood & Guts special edition of Wednesday Night Dynamite this week.
