10 Wrestling Dream Matches That Could Realistically Happen In 2022
3. Kazuchika Okada Vs. CM Punk
It isn't too surprising that Punk is making a second appearance on this list, as his meteoric return to the world of wrestling has turned him into a sure-fire vessel for dream matches. While an encounter with Cesaro is certainly a must, there's another prospect which is perhaps even more tantalising.
The recent partnership between AEW and NJPW has led to some huge stars jumping into the American promotion. Seeing Minoru Suzuki and Tomohiro Ishii in AEW has been a pure delight, and there's yet another New Japan star who seems like a must-have for All Elite Wrestling.
The Rainmaker, Kazuchika Okada, is one of the biggest names who has yet to jump over to the western market and seeing him do so would be monumental. If it were to happen, then he'd need to step into the ring with Punk, as it's a match-up that fans have forever dreamt of, which never seemed possible.
It seems the stars have truly aligned for this one, as Punk's return to wrestling and AEW's ability to make it happen seem like gifts from the wrestling heavens.
