... or I wish WWE actually had good announcers.
Cena does his big return on Memorial Day. Commentators play him up as the Best Wrestler in WWE History. He goes through his usual routine and what not. Out comes Heyman and Lesnar. Heyman goes over how Lesnar is gonna destroy him for good this time.
The lights go dark. "Rising Sun" blasts over the PA. Nakamura appears on the rampway to a reaction that is very vocal among the hardcore nerd base. As he walks down the aisle, most of the fans have no idea what to make of him, neither does Cole or Braxton. JBL refers to him as the "Biggest Star to come out of Japan."
Heyman talks up Nakamura. Talking about him being the "King of Strong Style." He then says, there's one thing he isn't: a Beast. Nakamura looks at Heyman, smiles, then gets right into Lesnar's face, shocking the audience. There's a bit of a tense stand off. Then Lesnar actually backs up. Commentators are like "I've never seen anyone actually scare Brock Lesnar, and he's faced the Undertaker!" and "What does this say about Shinsuke Nakamura?"
Lesnar leaves the ring, visibly concerned about the presence of Nakamura. Heyman, his eyes wide, leaves the ring, dropping the mic on his way out. Nakamura, back to smiling with his mouth guard in. Grabs the mic. He looks at it for a moment, then at the audience...
"YEAOUUUUUUUUUUUU!"
A bit of a pop.
"I've face the best the world has ever seen. And I've beaten the best in the world. I've heard talk that, in the WWE, there's none better than John Cena. So, now I have a challenge. What do you say, John?"
A pause, JBL playing up "The Best of Japan vs. The Best in WWE History!"
Cena replies, "Not many people have heard about you, around here. I have. My good buddy Daniel Bryan wanted to face you, because he knew there was no one like you in this business. I heard that no one hits harder. Well, I hit plenty hard myself. So if you want some... COME GET SOME!!!"

Why I say I wish WWE had better announcers? Because there's no way in hell that Cole et al. could sell the idea of Lesnar seeing a man and being afraid of him. They can't manage basic storytelling most of the time.
Thoughts?
