IWGP Champion and former TNA Star Kazuchika Okada was recently
interviewed about his fast progression to the top in New Japan
Pro. When asked about his time in TNA and his return with a new
gimmick and Character, Okada revealed that he developed it
during his time in TNA.
On his time in TNA
"TNA executives told me 'Do you know what makes money? It is red
lamp of TV camera. It's the character, not just the wrestling.'
So i started to create the RainMaker[Character]"
"TNA did not give me many opportunities to compete. So I had
lots of spare time. I started watching American pro wrestling
videos. All the videos I could find. I learned a lot from by
watching the big stars. I watched Sting. He was amazing. I
wanted to be just like Sting."
Okada admits that WWE has interest in him
"When I came back, I challenged Tanahashi and won the IWGP
title. Now everybody loves me. The WWE is interested."
Okada also revealed that because of his popularity with young
girls, New Japan is urging him not to get married.
Story provided by Kaz who inboxed me but whose inbox is full so
I can't reply so Kaz post more dude and you get unlimited
messages :)
Okada has a viable case for being called the Best in the World
right now, he learned that in TNA, shame TNA did not see what
they had on their hands mind . . .

him, he has the right Champions in Gado and Jado the NJPW
