HILARIOUS Backstage Wrestling Stories You Probably Didn't Know

10. Kazuchika Okada Will Always Try And Steal Some Young Bucks Gear

Along with being one of the greatest in-ring performers of all time, you may not have realised that Kazuchika Okada is actually a bit of a loveable goofball, too.

For an example of just how much of a silly legend the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion is, look no further than his insistence on robbing The Young Bucks' gear every time he finds himself sharing a backstage area with the Jackson boys.

Just last year the iconic scamp was at it again, nicking Nick's black-and-white get-up in June and doing something similar in October before teaming with Orange Cassidy against Claudio Castagnoli and Jon Moxley.

This fun little joke actually has some rather sweet origins, too. When the Bucks and Okada were working together in TNA, Matt & Nick bonded with the eventual Japanese legend backstage after going to bat for him when that company were trying to get him to bleed in a match. 

From there, the eventual AEW EVPs became best buds with Okada, with 'The Rainmaker' then eventually deciding to don their gear during every show they ended up working together and just surprising them as a third Buck for the fun of it.

Wholesome ribs. You love to see it.
