#2. Prince Devitt vs Kazuchika Okada - NJPW: Kizuna Road, 2013

Devitt vs Okada- Kizuna Road, 2013

In his quest to become the first man to hold both the IWGP Jr and Heavyweight Championship at the same time, Prince Devitt went toe-to-toe with 'The Rainmaker' Kazuchika Okada in an absolutely stellar match at Kizuna Road, 2013.

One of the prime reasons why this contest turned out to be such an aggressive and intense bout is due to Devitt’s amazing capabilities of portraying the role of a cocky and masterful heel.

Throughout the match, Devitt seemingly targeted Okada’s back with the champ selling all the offense in a brilliant manner.

The outside interference from the Bullet Club was honestly pretty enjoyable too and the fact that Okada successfully prevailed against the rest of the Biz Cliz members is another entertaining touch to the match as well.

However, due to the interference from Anderson and Tama Tonga, Devitt subsequently found himself a big opening and hit Okada with his own Tombstone move, followed up by a devastating Coupe de Grace, on a Steel Chair that was perfectly placed on ‘The Rainmaker’.

But, as Devitt looked to put away Okada with the Bloody Sunday, the IWGP Heavyweight Champion managed to stay on his two feet and turned things around with via the Tombstone and The Rainmaker to get a hard-fought victory.
