That jobber trio made all of Okada's moves look like super death in the best way.

Okada looked like an unbeatable monster tonight. Props to those jobbers.

Okada looked like an unbeatable monster tonight. Props to those jobbers. Best way to do it, Bucks look like shitheads not having to do a damn thing, Okada looks exactly like Okada should, dominant I think that's the difference in presentation that works imo. Ospreay was given a match to showcase his workhorse abilities especially since he's more of a face, Okada is being booked like the final boss heel maybe soon to be in the whole company once Joe loses the belt. Both imo were showcased their first week as they should have been to get over their purposes out the gate.

Okada also seems like he's comfortable enough with English to at least do quips back and forth with the Bucks. Guy's a great promo in Japanese so it's good to see some of that come over now that he's in AEW.

I also hope they do subtitled promos too sprinkled in because Okada's cadence and smoothness should get those over too

The whole Okada presentation on Collision was exactly what I had hoped for. He was a douche yet still looked like a killer in ring. Big boss Okada will be so good.

Though accurate subtitles for a live in-ring promo would be about impossible unless he strictly keeps to a written script. He can probably do enough in English for live promos where it isn't necessary and do pre-taped Japanese for anything more involved he isn't comfortable with.

So everything coming out is that Tony has had the idea of Okada being a top heel character since at least Forbidden Door II

Really disappointed he didn’t win the “Modern American Triple Crown.”

Okada pulling up to arena in the Ferrari* he promised to buy last week made me smile
It was time for Eddie to drop that title and Okada continues to look like a big deal, fairly quick.
*I know jack all about cars, it could have been some other type of car. I just know it was something nicer and way more expensive than MY broke ass could afford

Okada with three belts would have been great but if we’re doing a “Eddie loses his belts one by one” thing than this makes sense. It was the right move to immediately belt up the Rainmsker regardless. And next we get Okada/PAC!

I'd have loved to see him dripping with gold too but I don't think he's going to be having a NJPW title near him for a long time, they're attempting to move on without him and he's alluded to possibly never going back, would send out very mixed messages to then have him holding one of their belts. And then there's the fact Eddie probably needs to defend the ROH title separately since it's a world title and will need to go back to being its own thing anyway, and it's a better story if he loses the belts one by one.
Great to see Okada as a champion so soon, been loving his heel work so far and can't wait for that match with Pac.
