I was gon say the exact same thing in the match comparison thread but figured id cause a riot. His clotheline looks weak as fukk. Made me miss the old clotheline from hells.
There was several timws in the first 20 minutes where one dude was just staring at the other waiting to be hit. Okada throws some weak kicks too lookin half ass as shyt.
Match didnt have half the intensity it needed minus the hard hitting knee spots.
omega is better than okada.
as a matter of fact, okada is no where near tanaka or even nigel was as a worker with a clothesline finisher.
okada is basically what if randy orton had better workrate and psychology but in njpw, as far as who i compare him to.
i liken him to the better randy orton style of worker in a japanese sense.
where instead of orton's american mugshot model style.
okada has the blonde yakuza mugshot model style, complete with casino and cardhouse style motif to match.
i like okada but people are overrating him.
imo, he got exposed in those fale matches.
which are alright, but not that great as far as giant vs little style matches.
