So when
Cageside Seats sat down with the New Japan Heavyweight champ before their Strong Style Evolved show on Sunday, Okada named his dream opponent: The Rock. Obviously, this would be an awesome match whether in New Japan or whether Okada came stateside to work for WWE. When asked about why The Rock was his dream match opponent, he told Cageside Seats anything is possible.
“We just had Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega fight each other at Tokyo Dome,” said Okada. “In Long Beach, we were supposed to have Rey Mysterio versus Liger, and it’s not gonna happen. But there’s a possibility that I can fight against The Rock.”
