10 Superstars Kurt Angle Needs To Face Before He Retires

By Andrew Pollard /

6. Kazuchika Okada

Whilst Kurt Angle may have wrestled Shinsuke Nakamura in the past, another Japanese superstar who fans would love to see Angle tangle with is Okada. The Rainmaker is €œthe man€ right now in New Japan as the reigning IWGP Heavyweight Champion, a head above any and all competition. He€™s one of the finest wrestlers on the planet and has a habit of putting on 5* matches at the drop of a hat. Pitting Okada against Kurt Angle is a prospect that will have fans licking their lips, although whether it ever happens remains to be seen. Angle will be a free agent within a matter of weeks, but would he be prepared to wrestle in Japan once again? If he is, and if New Japan are interested, a match with Okada is a must. Should it happen, as fans we can expect to be in for a real treat and something that could go down as one of the greatest matches of recent memory.
