Kazuchika Okada does not hate TNA after all.
Kazuchika Okada does not hate TNA after all.
NJPW star Kazuchika Okada worked for TNA/IMPACT in 2010/2011, and his time with the company fragmented the relationship between the companies for several years. His run as Okato was not up to his standard or that of NJPW, and as recently as September 2023, Okada said he hated TNA. However, he returned to TNA at TNA Snake Eyes on January 14. Okada teamed up with Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin to face Moose, Brian Myers, and Eddie Edwards.
After the match, Okada addressed the crowd and stated that he did not hate TNA. (Clip courtesy of Fightful’s Joel Pearl)
“Thank you. Many people ask me, ‘Why you hate TNA?’ But I don’t hate TNA. Thank you, TNA. TNA made me not Rainmaker…. But good thing for me. Thank you, TNA,” Okada said.
