What is being said about Kazuchika Okada potentially working for WWE in the future
Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com is reporting that there has been some talk as of late about NJPW star Kazuchika Okada potentially working for WWE in the future. According to Meltzer, the pitch for Okada is that him and Shinsuke Nakmaura are friends and at 36 years old, wrestling for WWE would be easier on Okada’s body.
WWE has reportedly shown interest in Okada over the years but Meltzer stated the following about the current situation…
“One person who buzzed us about the renewed interest in Okada said that one of the reasons Nakamura is getting a renewed push is to show Okada that this regime is not going to treat Japanese like the stereotypical children-like role (although Tozawa is still playing that role) because Vince [McMahon] does that with people who don’t speak fluent English, but this is a new regime. Okada is a name always brought up but there’s no indication there’s anything new to this other than there’s been more talk of late.”
