Kazuchika Okada Reflects On Facing Bryan Danielson, Hopes They Can Have A Rematch

Kazuchika Okada shares his thoughts on his match with Bryan Danielson at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door and teases a rematch.

Speaking with Tokyo Sports, Okada looked back on the match and noted that he felt like he experienced American pro wrestling when “The Final Countdown” started playing during Danielson’s entrance.

“I was the last one to enter, but I was only caught up in AEW, and suddenly [Bryan] came out in ‘The Final Countdown’ and took [the air] with me,” Okada said. “This time, I really felt that I experienced American pro wrestling.”

Okada commented on a potential rematch by referencing the injury Danielson suffered in the match and stating that he hopes they can share the ring again at the right time.

“I don’t think it’s going to be a card that everyone was so excited about, and I don’t want it to be easy,” Okada said. “However, if I had the time to repay the debt, I would break one or two more arms and win. I hope we can do it at the right time.”

AEW CEO Tony Khan previously discussed getting “The Final Countdown” for AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. Check out his comments here.

Brie Garcia, Danielson’s wife, shared a picture of his x-ray and noted that the injury was worse than they first thought. More information is available here.
