5 Potential Challengers For IWGP Champion Kazuchika Okada

2. Hiroshi Tanahashi

When it comes to the most iconic feuds in wrestling, Kazuchika Okada vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi is one of the best.

Although the two have become closer and started teaming after Jay White’s betrayal, fans would love nothing more than the two to wrestle again.

In particular, with Okada holding the World Championship and Tanahashi having the US title, things would be exciting.

Tanahashi and Okada are as similar as they are different. Although from different eras, they both combine fast and strong styles.

Yet, Tanahashi has that added unpredictability that works perfectly with Okada’s athleticism.

With so many years of experience, they are perfectly able to balance storytelling and wrestling, making them work harmoniously.

Despite seeing it so many times, the two wrestlers manage to bring something new out of each other in each bout.

Over the years, Okada and Tanahashi have had some great matches and with both men holding titles, the stakes are as high as ever.

They might have an amicable working relationship, but all friendships are off the card when gold is on the line.
