Okada asking Corgan if he can get Tyrus out of retirement.

Is it possible Okada wants a small break before deciding his next move? He's been an iron man for New Japan. He's been competing for 12 years without a break or getting injured that's quite a feat

He’s NJPW’s Roman Reigns basically. Except not as sexy. 😂♥️

The longer this speculation goes on, the more I want Okada to sign with NOAH.

He’s already a legend, but if you want to be a phenomenon then go to WWE.

He's been competing for 12 years without a break or getting injured that's quite a feat I'm almost positive he's gotten injured, but yeah, nothing serious that took him out of commission. That said, wouldn't be shocked if he takes a couple of months to heal up if he isn't making an immediate jump. He could probably use a little time with the family and to refresh.

Is Monthly Puroresu a legit source? They're saying they think he's WWE bound. The part that seems crazy/makes me doubt it is that he'd "potentially" start in NXT. I'm pretty good on my US sources but not sure who's as connected on the Japanese wrestling front. monthlypuroresu.com/features/kazuchika-okada-korekuen-hall-love/

f*** me if he ends up going to NXT. Holy shit. My assumption is that if this was even true, it'd be an extremely short stint in NXT. Like extremely short. If it means Stand & Deliver's Main Event is Ilja vs. Okada, I'd think it's worth it.

From what I've gathered looking around, I don't see too many people treating that publication as a super legitimate source and it seems somewhat speculative. Okada could very well sign with WWE but I don't think that should be seen as a major source of truth.

Like selfishly I want him in AEW, but honestly I just want a bonkers as F*** run in NXT. Bring back long boi, balloon Okada for a time just completely out there. Not even sure if I'd want a main roster run really.

I won't post the full text, but Fightful Select kind of threw cold water on that Monthly Puroresu report. Sounds like Okada's still in the early days of his decision making process like it was reported the other day.

I feel he would be more of a natural fit in AEW. But I can't deny I would love to see him in WWE.

I'm torn because NXT run could be hilarious but HBK has been tremendously bad at booking Japanese talent and not even in a funny "tee hee silly booker of the year" kind of way so I would fear that trend continuing.
