Nakamura will also need to undergo medical testing before officially signing on with WWE. The company usually has their testing done in Pittsburgh, PA.
As previously noted, Nakamura and WWE had been in talks prior to him signing his current NJPW contract, which expires later this month. Nakamura was stripped of the IWGP Heavyweight Championship when news broke of him leaving for WWE. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, it appears that Nakamura will be bypassing NXT and starting on the main WWE roster.
