Kazuchika Okada Is Coming To AEW!
Dave Meltzer let slip that Okada will be involved with All Elite Wrestling and Impact Wrestling.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Kazuchika Okada will be heading to AEW and Impact wrestling.
In the wake of Impact's No Surrender event last night, and the news of FinJuice (David Finley and Juice Robinson) heading to Impact this Tuesday, the door between NJPW and other U.S. promotions appears to now be fully open. When asked about the subject on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer confirmed this to be the case before dropping the mother of all bombshells.
In his words:
“They are all in business, it’s all open now. Okada is coming...I don’t know where or when, but HE IS officially coming... and others are coming too”.
So, there you have it. According to Dave, Okada will be making his presence known in the likes of AEW and Impact further down the road, no doubt setting up another dream match with current AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, along with a whole host of other potential five star classics with the rest of AEW and Impact's talented rosters. Yet, it's also worth noting that Meltzer stressed that "others are coming too", meaning Okada could just be the tip of a jaw-dropping iceberg.
Along with FinJuice's imminent Impact arrival, KENTA showed up on AEW a few weeks ago, wrestling a match on Dynamite this past week and setting up what is sure to be an insane road ahead when the world permits more NJPW talent to travel to the U.S.
